should the man be the head of the house?

So you think we should adhere to the gender roles of 70+ years ago and have women subservient to men, as was tradition?

They lack the necessary education because they got pregnant too young as your modern society touts that losing your virginity at 14 is the norm.

can you imagine a lioness choosing a maneless lion who is smaller than her.......awkawrrrrrrd!!

You quite tellingly don't say that the woman, as main breadwinner, should have the same say in decision-making as the man would in a relationship where he is the main breadwinner.

Your views have nothing to do with roles in a relationship, but sex/gender. Your views are pure, unadulterated sexism.

And if you know of no couples where the woman earns more, it would appear you don't mix with the real world very much.

Look. If you want to go back to the 19th Century where (assuming you're female), you would almost certainly live your entire life at the whim of a man and have next to no civil liberties or education, then that's your choice. If a life of domestic violence and abuse and oppression sounds fun, then good for you. Most sane people would disagree.

Whoever earns the most should have the final say, clearly.

I am not advocating abusive relationships or demeaning women, quite the opposite. I believe that both sexes have different mantles within both their relationship and household.

that will be the man the vast majority of the time.

What the hell is up with all of this misogyny on TSR lately?!

Tbf a lot of it is the OP.

So why are you advocating we go back to the 19th Century when abusive relationships and female oppression was the norm?

And why do you believe that the sexes have different 'mantles'? Is this something that you have any evidence for, or is it just a belief?

There are even misogynistic women in this thread which absolutely blows my mind...

I did not claim that we should go back to the 19th century, however we can cherry pick some of their morals and traditional values to make our society the best that it could be.


* Becoming more conservative

* Integration of religion into society

* Condemning sex before marriage in mainstream media, possibly integrating this into law.

... I have more suggestions.

which sex is more likely to earn more on average? which sex is more likely to work full time? which sex is less likely to be a stay at home parent?

clue: the answer is the same for all 3 questions.

What is it with you and this 19th century obsession? All Redone seems to be doing is advocating gender roles (correct me if I'm wrong here Redone). She is not saying that men should beat and oppress their women.
Being the head of something doesn't give you the right to abuse your inferiors. It just means they take charge and make the final decisions. The head of a business does not beat his workers. The head of a country doesn't (or shouldn't) oppress his people.
