		<description>I think that people who don&#039;t live in the house should buttout of it and those how do are responsible for what goes on.  If I do 98% of the household chores and my wife does 2%, why is it the place of feminists (or anyone else) to come into our home and tell her she&#039;s not doing her part.  That is for the two of us to work out.

Also, if I like a cleaner house than my wife, if it drives me nuts when it is not at a certain level of neatness I should have married someone neater or I can do more of the cleaning.  That is what is the case in many homes.  The wife may not be satisfied with husband&#039;s contributions and chooses to do things herself.  Well, those are all personal choices that those of us who don&#039;t live there should butt out.</description>

		<description>saika, u said 
&gt;&gt;Secondly, I myself am planning to get married soon. I don’t find any guy willing to accommodate a career &gt;&gt;oriented wife, though you mention there are so many around.
What kind of groom did u look when ur searching. Touch ur heart &amp; be true for sake of ur life.

1) He should be 23-28 years old, should have decent job 
2) Have masters or higher education.
3) Should be nuclear in family.
4) I dont care about his bank balance(sure u do).

Did u have the guts to look for a groom who is a commerce or arts graduate &amp; works as a clerk or a peon or receptionist or a painter or a taxi driver &amp; will truly love u. Trust me, if u marry those folks he will never object to ur dreams, bcos u made his dream come true by marring him.

&gt;&gt;Fourth, once women have children, their families prefer that they spend maximum time with the kids. This &gt;&gt;prevents them from taking up jobs that require travelling or transfers.
There is a saying &quot;Man who dreams high cant live with a female who dreams high &amp; vice-versa&quot;. So never in history u will find that u see a superman &amp; supergirl created a superchild &amp; thats what ur asking for.</description>

		<description>@  Pravin and Prasoon - Are you the same person, just with different names? I am not even going to bother to comment on your comments. You have clearly missed the point.

@ Vivek - Family management and social networking are sadly not recognised as fields!</description>

		<description>@Saika, &quot;Girls are typically forced to leave their careers post marriage because of various reasons.&quot; ----&gt; clearly says you have false understanding of subject.

Do read &quot;Prassoon Suryadas&quot;&#039;s comment no only once but twice and if needed thrice. I am sure you will understand each word written by him has great meaning and level of maturity.</description>

		<description>To the men who think the single life is the worst curse: Its far far better to be single, independent with financial security and get emotional security from a few close friends and family than to be stuck in a marriage where you are expected to cater to your husband&#039;s and in-laws&#039; every needs, your time is not your own, you are not allowed to have time for yourself.  And this is just the description of an ordinary run-of the mill marriage.  Being stuck in a bad marriage (with physical or emotional abuse) is a whole other ball-game which I am not even touching.</description>

		<description>Well i think prasoon do have a point that people marries to build a family. Also there are some fields where women&#039;s brain are better designed to do such as family management,social network...even if men take over can they do better than women ( for eg: if you have seen indian marriages, women are most of the matchmakers, i&#039;ve seldom seen men and I think around the world mothers force their children to settle down). About the financial security, it is more depends on couple ( as i&#039;ve seen most of the time eventhough a husband manages funds for their home they give their ownership to their wife). Couples can manage and own asserts together even if one of then paid for it.
Also i need an honest answer from women readers, do you want to leave a lone life after 40+. Single men might not have any responsiblity but a single women will always have more responsiblity as they might have kids to see. So even if couple don&#039;t share responsiblities equally, but it is still much better than being single.</description>

		<description>Sreeparna, @ &quot;sometimes this masks the fact that marriage has more advantages for men than for women especially when we examine the financial portfolios of married women in developed countries compared to never married or widowed women. Married women appear to have smaller pensions and investments as well as savings.&quot;

I&#039;m not sure how it works in the UK but in some  countries like the US the tax system also encourages this. Unlike in India where every individual is taxed as a separate unit, in the US it is possible for the couple to be taxed as one unit. So the benefits (deductions / exemptions) that apply individually are multiplied by two and applied to the couple instead. The impact of this is, that on a couple basis, it may sometimes be more beneficial for the woman to quit / work part time. The primary earner (generally the man) gets the advantages of more tax benefits since he tends to have more taxable income. The secondary earner finds she can add value through unpaid household labour like housekeeping / childcare etc which tend to be expensive. 

This is of course a sweeping generalisation - the tax provision would probably impact professionals at different levels differently. But it has been criticised on the grounds of being one of the factors that may compel certain professional women to get into part time work.</description>

		<description>@ NM - your comments are well received. However I would argue that you always have some element of choice, especially if you are educated and middle-class. I think it is important to not devalue women&#039;s work (both at home and outside) and think of her as an active agent. There are feminists who choose to not marry or have children and are happy to live the consequences of those choices. There are women who continue to stay in unhappy marriages for the sake of security and economic stability....if you do not want to sign up to a patriarchal mode of life - marriage family kids, you don&#039;t have to but it also means that you have to be willing to live a life of frequent loneliness and the odd stare.</description>
