    the womens "lib shit" started in the 1950s... remember tupperware parties? keeping a woman at home is selling her short on her intelligence and free agency... the problem began when (interestingly enough starting in the 1950's as well) the marketers started the psych applications (see another post about impeaching bush)... once we were convinced that we had to be other-directed, we became convinced (over time) that we had to keep up with society's expectation of us as consumers. at which point people accepted the rationale that day care was best for the child (the child will develop faster ect.), when really it just allows both parents to work full time and consume at an accelerated rate. the marketers used the lib movement to reinforce the rationalization.

    conversely, many societies in the hunter/gatherer stage had the women go out to hunt and the men stayed to maintain and protect the camp, but that's another discussion entirely.

    I used to play in an orchestra with a guy who was a "stay at home husband". His wife was an executive at a local business and he sat around, did housework, and played his trombone all day. He talked about it like it was a sweet deal. I wouldnt mind it . . .
