Yes Cinco, I realized after I wrote the above that many of you men may have SAHM wives and still not be getting any special attention for it....not sure what to say.
I had it "ok" when my son was born in that I could at least work just part time (versus full time) and my husband's schedule was different than mine so we didn't have the baby in child care full time, so that was important to me.
But I never ever got to just be home with my baby as I was the main breadwinner, and for this I was always feeling envious of those stay-home moms.
HOWEVER Cinco...even if I was a SAHM mom, I can't say for sure if I would have been good to him because of it or not. I was really pretty crappy to him in general, so I don't really know. I *felt* it was because he was letting me down was the reason I didn't step up more as a wife...but maybe I was just young, dumb and stubborn and I wouldn't have been good to him at all?
(actually I know that I would have definitely been BETTER to him)...
Anyway, I acknowledge your plight, and yes, F.U. to women's lib!
