Wheres "feminism" cropping up here ??!!!

I'm a housewife with a family of voracious eaters . And I'll tell you my dilema of the day everyday ... WHAT TO COOK FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER ????? There might be a lot of people out there who might thing ... is this such an important issue?? But in my house YES. When I got married I was surprised to see my mom-in-law plan and plan for daily meals and I was soooo surprised. But I'm doing the same thing now,
A lot of feminist ladies out there will think why should we women be made to cook and serve and be so engrossed in these mundane task.
But theres a place for everything in the spectre of life.
Atleast thats my opinion. If I make a good meal and my family enjoys it then I'm satisfied. Everyones happy and content. Similarly a mans job is to provide for his family and he has to do the best he can. My husband works hard for the family. And hes happy with that. I'm a software eng. with many years of work exp under my belt.
But thats my thought.
Theres no feminism in this . The lady looks after the home and the man brings in the bread and butter.
Thats what GOD destined and asusual man has altered it.Ofcourse there might be compelling situations where the breadwinner might not be there so the wife might have to earn and not spend enough time at home. But that should be an exception.
Theres a lot of confusion on these issues now-a-days in the society and we have a generation thats all confused and unsure about what to give importance in life. And so many divorces happenening around us could be because of this.
There are so many kids left in the care of ayahs while their mothers go to work. There are so many issues hapenening in that area too. and I dont even want to go there now.
To a certain extent its all greed ... more money ... better liestyle ... better this or better that ... But at the cost of what ???
But we're past the stage of mending and reforming. Things have to take a full circle and get sorted out on their own.
Lets hope for that.
