Guest guest Posted February 19, 2001 Report Share Posted February 19, 2001 Do you ever have fantasies of going on strike? Doing only those things in the household that benefit you directly? Obviously I'm not talking about the things that need doing with our sick or young children, but maybe backing off on some of that support that our spouses are so used to from us, but don't give as easily? Our best friends, a couple that we have known since high school, are different. I love them to death, but the wife never seems to be able to do anything for herself. Somehow her husband always takes care of things. I told my cousin that in my next life I was going to come back as one of those women, and she said " not me, I'm coming back as a man " ! I'm really not male-bashing to you men out there, just targeting a few specific ones, so please don't be insulted! I wonder what would happen if we just refused to do some of these things? Maybe the consequences for family harmony wouldn't be worth it, but why are we always the ones trying to keep the peace? I don't really have an answer for you, just letting you know that you are not alone. Hope I haven't insulted anyone! --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
