Fragile Masculinity

Take whatever role you want in your life. You're not as hard done by as you like to believe....

This is exactly what women go through to fight for a chance to land a position that is stereotyped for men.

"Which sex spends the most money on cars and car accessories?"

For this one, I don't know. Could be either gender. Certainly women control the majority of domestic spending.

I have no idea what reality world you live in but have you looked at the stats for double income households with kids?

Oh yes, you are so oppressed playing the damsel in distress gender role! And of course it's so hard to find a job as a woman when there is a 2:1 hiring preference for hiring women in STEM (http://www.pnas.org/content/112/17/5360.abstract), programs specifically to help women get employed but not for men, hiring preference for women (Philip Oreopoulos) and employment equity programs to advantage women in hiring, especially in the public service where women already make up a disproportionate number of employees. But men who have a much higher unemployment rate? Nah, they clearly have an easier time.

No. If you have statistics, please provide them.

This is a strange topic. Nothing pink can be found in my chalet. I just use bar soap so I don't need one of those silly poof thingies. Why do men feel a need to act feminine? Pick up and ax and split some wood for damn sakes.

I gotta say I just did a quick count in my head of all the families I have known and can remember and the very great majority had both parents in the workforce.

If you read back on your posts, you asked for stats on double income families. Post #28

No. If you have statistics, please provide them.

Post #28. I said "I have no idea what reality world you live in but have you looked at the stats for double income households with kids?"

You said: "No. If you have statistics, please provide them."

And post #28 was a response to an earlier post. You fail to relate what you wrote to the discussion.
