AG,

I think the problem is some women want a 50's M... They stay home and are a "housewife".......... The HUGE problem is they want a "modern" man... Meaning he works 10-12 hours a day... Then, he comes home and does his "manly" chores.... Caring for the lawn, fixing things around the home and what not..... Then, he is expected to "help" her with the "housekeeping" tasks such as dusting, cleaning, laundry, etc.... To me, if you are taking care of the home for 10-12 hours a day, there is more than enough time to keep the house white glove clean.... \:\) What I am really writing is I believe many of these women just see their Hs as an ATM......

In my new M, we share all of the duties..... That signifies what a M should be about.... A partnership.....
