It will take a couple generations to make this change. But I really think that if you want men to act like men, then women need to act like women. The woman's movement to eqaulity in America and the world was and is not a bad thing. But in the process no one thought of what it is really like to grow up a man in this world. You raise your daughters to stand up for their rights and say go to hell men we rule this world, then you want men to treat your daughters with tender loving care and stay home while they pamper them. Well which way do you want it. Be a man or be a woman but you can't have it both ways. For many years it was a mans role to bring home the bacon and a woman would stay home and take care of the children. Over the last 40 years women have fought so hard to change that role and they succeeded. Being pushed around and bullied all of our lives is part of being a man. If you want to reverse it (which is impossible) then moms need to stay home and raise boys and girls to be boys and girls. What most women never realized is how noble and so important the role of homemaker and mother really was and is and how so vital it really was to the America alot of people grew up in. The minds of millions of boys and girls and their roles in society has changed forever. It is no longer little boys role to take care of girls anymore because we grow up knowing that they do not want us to take care of them anymore and if we try to we get called a sexist pig at a very early age. The outside world and the inside instincts are fighting and the world is winning. So congrats on the liberation thing ladies, you should have asked a man how hard it is to live in a man's world before you started it. We never doubted how hard your role was that is why we never fought to be a homemaker in the 60's and 70's.
