I guess it's pretty difficult for most women - and men - to find the right balance.
Well, I used to hide all my chocolates in the vegetable keeper; that kept one of them from finding them for ages.
Are we becoming more like men? No, but we are becoming more assertive which some men may interpret as being more aggressive.
Gotta feeling Alvin Toffler said things like that as well - Future Shock and all that ....I see good case for both male and female living separately; meeting briefly for sex and or other old fashioned rituals.
The development Toffler believes may go down as this era's greatest turning point is the creation of wealth in outer space. Wealth today, he argues, is created everywhere (globalisation), nowhere (cyberspace), and out there (outer space). Global positioning satellites are key to synchronising precision time and data streams for everything from cellphone calls to ATM withdrawals. They allow Just In Time productivity because of precise tracking. GPS is also becoming central to air-traffic control. And satellites increase agricultural productivity through tracking weather, enabling more accurate forecasts.
Two major predictions of Toffler's - the paperless office and human cloning - have yet to be realized, not due to technological barriers but to sociological and politico-religious conditions.
Interesting subject. To get out of the kitchen did women have to try to out swear and out drink the men, get road rage in traffic in trying to out do the female driver slur etc. That is the way a percentage appear to act to me. I was brought up to respect a lady. It is hard to respect a lot of female behaviour these days. I don't respect a lot of male behaviour either but why do women have to go to that extreme to prove a point.
Same here......I was brought up to respect females, but it's hard to respect the increasing numbers of women who are abandoning their femininity.
On the other hand, I find it equally difficult to respect the increasing numbers of men these days who are abandoning their masculinity.
Male cosmetics, male jewellery, male body waxing, pooncy clothes, male beauty treatment, male fragrances, men carrying handbags.....what a joke!
I admire male men and female women. Unfortunately, both are becoming harder to find due to increasing gender confusion among both sexes.
I noticed on an entertainment show which I viewed for 10 minutes that two women in an act were a diesel fitter and other a boilermaker.Same here......I was brought up to respect females, but it's hard to respect the increasing numbers of women who are abandoning their femininity.
Oh dear. So do we need to get back into the kitchen, put on our aprons, and lovingly await the return of the lord and master?

... I think that the problem with SOME women is that they think they have to ACT like men just to get equality. Believe me they do not have to do that at all.
Actually I think it is OH&S requirements that no-one, even burly menshould be required to lift more 20k's - not good for anyone. or dont you burly men get injured? Hmm, I think workcover might say something different.
There are some advantages for men with the women as tradesPERSONS. A bag of cement used to weigh 40kg. That meant it discriminated against women because they were only allowed to lift a maximum of 20kg. So now a bag of cement weighs 20kg. Not as efficient for the builder as the men now make twice the number of movements handling the same load and I've yet to see a female using bagged cement. The same applies to many other products.
All it proves is that women are different and not equal in the real sense.
I'n my early days a bag of wheat weighed 180 lbs and was lumped by men. It was reduced to 140lbs for health and safety reasons. But then I cant recall any of the men I had working for me then taking quiche for their lunch either.
I have a female relation whom completed an apprenticeship in a physically demanding role. She now has no interest in the trade and I am wondering if she and other women take on roles suited to males because they can and not because they want to. In my opinion she done some young lad with a career desire out of a hard to get apprenticeship.
Another present time example of women stepping into jobs that were always for men.
Nearing retirement, he is astonished at how many women over the last few years have stepped into male roles in his line of work and the ease of which it is allowed.
Is this another Government initiative? Where is the idea getting support and momentum from?
Oh my gosh, that is shocking!heaven help it that a WOMAN should do a job that was predestined for a man! What is this world coming to.
Do you guys know how fuddy duddy you all sound? Thank God for enlightened souls like Tech/A!
