hope things are going well!Originally posted by tare:nowadays ppl dun just marry out of love, there are dozens of funny reasons.... so doesn't mean they must divorce if love is out of the pic.... there are dozens of funny reasons why ppl remain married too.....
marriage afterall is not like signing up for a club membership: not happy, just cancel the membership.... things do get complicated.... -
I don't see the need to obey my partner, he is not God! that would give a coronary, straight through my artery. Like any contractual partnership, I do not know of any contractual clause requiring obidence of contractual parties. Women make decisions everyday, in the boardroom as CEO of companies etc, they are not expected to demonstrate self restraint or self control. Why should the decision making process differs in a marriage contract? A joint decision making process in the best interest of the partnership would be a lot more democractic. Singapore is a creation of an abstract marriage of Confucius and Victoria.

u missed out something.
we are talking about LOVE here.
u mentioned "partner", "contract", "parties".... or are u saying that love (has degraded and) has such a meaning to you? so.. "boardroom-ish"... -

Eh...there are wives and husbands who do these chores, you know (besides me and my hubby). If the man thinks it's the wife's duty to do housework and work, please don't make him your husband lor, since he must be a relic from the dark ages.Originally posted by shinta:how many women would cook for their husbands after a long day at work?
how many husbands would help their wives with the housework after a long day @ work?
most think that it's the wives' duty to maintain the place, working or not.

actually i also dun really know last time.. just try lor.Originally posted by shinta:yeah i'm slow
i noe flyin kites can be fun, but... dunno how to fly wor..
throw the kite up in the air with some loose string.. START RUNNING and letting go more line as u run.....
i think the fun part is when u have those lines that can cut other pple's lines, so u have a "kite fight" and pple will lose their kites. -
Back to the topic on men and women's job...
there shouldn be a line to clearly distinct do what. It should be split in such a way that it's comfy for both parties
i might peel prawns for nel, but he'd help me with fish..
yes i'm an idiot who get choke by fish bones as often as the moon comes out -
if i'm good at that n he sucks, then, it'd be my part lor...Originally posted by Wanda:Eh...there are wives and husbands who do these chores, you know (besides me and my hubby).

like, he'd cook, n i wash up cos i'm a lousy cook
anyway, even if i'm a good cook, chances are, i'd be the one washin up, cos he'd say wait wait n wait. -

cannot run... my shin got problem -
that is why compability is important. some women hate it when a man thinks she should do housework, while other women think that it's their duty to.Originally posted by Wanda:Eh...there are wives and husbands who do these chores, you know (besides me and my hubby).

then there are some men who will always help, and some that will never help.
so if we all "choose" well, then everyone would be happy.
but is it that simple?
u know this reminds me of a "list" that women (and i guess men too) make containing qualities of their ideal man. one fine day, they might meet such a man, only to find that while he fits the bill, they have no feelings for him.
then how?
love is like that, it (could) make(s) u do the housework even when u hate it how he expects u to.
by the same token, men could find it bo liow to teach a woman to fly a kite, but if it makes her happy, i'll be down to marina south in a jiffy! -
ok.. maybe u just stick to prawn peeling as a leisurely activity...Originally posted by shinta:

then i must be very lucky.. i hav that list... n i fell in love with someone who fits that listOriginally posted by jOhO:u know this reminds me of a "list" that women (and i guess men too) make containing qualities of their ideal man. one fine day, they might meet such a man, only to find that while he fits the bill, they have no feelings for him.
