Sweet is not sweet without sour

After much thought, I decided to add more thoughts on the subject. I don't believe that chauvinism is restricted to any nationality, but can be found everywhere. This guy sounds like a real male chauvinist _______, maybe near the top of the heap. Growing up, I can't say whether my mother was a feminist, but she taught me that if you make the mess, then you clean it up. I learned how to wash, vacuum, dust, and clean up not only my own personal space, but the other spaces that were within my play area. In married life I help out where ever necessary with any chores that need doing. If some one is looking for a maid, then hire one, your wife is your help mate, not your servant! If we want equal rights in wearing the clothes we wish to wear, then we need to step up and do our equal share of the work around the home front also.
On a lighter note, I usually wear a skirt etc, when doing house work. I guess I'm not a chauvinist then...lol.

Please do not treat all of Europe as backward like this. I live in Scotland and we not only have a lot of leaders of political parties who are women, but the majority of male and female party leaders are gay or bisexual. No one cares about their sexuality. As far as I can see most European countries are way more liberal than the US.

When I was with my previous girlfriend (before I cd'd), I was at a thanksgiving dinner with her family and friends. After dinner, the men were all sitting around the table bullshitting, and the women were all clearing the table. When I got up to help clear the table, the father said, "Sit back down. Men don't do that in this house - that's women's work." Holding a handful of dishes, I looked him square in the eye and said, "Well, I don't know how you were raised, but my momma always taught me that if you make a mess, you clean it up." I got hugs and kisses from all the ladies!
