It's easy, and only takes a few moments.What about people, men and women, who do think that there's a place for each gender and it might not coincide with your view? My wife and I decided that our kids would be better off with me working and her staying home to raise the kids, not the other way around or by us making more money by both working? I'd be willing to bet any amount that our kids turned out better off for it.

Clicking straight to page 7 after not having read any of this thread:
Do gifs not work on this site?
if you just paste the direct URL into your post, it works:
inserting the GIF using the image button doesn't seem to work (although oddly it shows up in the message editing box):
Wow, you're a real catch. You sound like someone with a lot of issues.
BTW, let me know when you want to compare service records since you've got everyone all sized up. I have no problem with sharing them.
Or, you can just give out some more manly dislikes...your call
But we've gone way off topic and that's going to be my last word on this.
That's fine and it works for you and your wife. More power to you both. People should run their own lives how they see fit.
But don't try to limit other women's options because of your beliefs about what the role of women should be. Who are you (or yougotmossed) to tell women what they should or shouldn't do with their lives?
What about them? You're entitled to your own socio-cultural views, but at the same time you need to come to grips with the fact that your views are not prevalent in 2015. Much like gay marriage: you may oppose it personally, but as a society we've decided that you don't get to impose your views on others when "the others" are engaging in activities that don't cause you harm.
Once again. I AM NOT DOING THAT! Never have and never will. People like you are the ones telling others how they should live their lives.
The key point in this post: you and your wife made that choice. It worked best for you, it was what you wanted, so you chose it and nobody got to tell you that you couldn't. The people in this thread who think women have no business being in football are the ones going against that principle, as they're the ones trying to force their own values on others' career choices.
Nobody's saying women should be forced to officiate football games here. But for those who want to, and who have the necessary skills and have put in the necessary time and effort to be qualified for the job, of course that opportunity should be available to them. And if they'd rather stay at home and raise their kids, then obviously that's entirely their call and nobody else gets to make it for them.
No, that's not right at all. We're saying people should be free to make that decision on their own accord, and that you should respect their right to do so as it doesn't affect you really in any significant way.

How exactly is JackBauer (and people like him) telling other people how they should live their lives? What exactly has he said (or even implied) that anyone shouldn't be allowed to do?
Wtf is this crap doing here?
Yeah, I kind of suspected I was going to get dissed by the "sisterhood" for "going there."
Fortunately, I don't give a good f*ck.
