Why aren't women happy???

I dont want to kill her...Im quoting a song hun. The premise of this thread is that women bitch regardless of lifes blessings. My wife bitches yet she is caring and compassionate..shes an RN. Im sure you bitch,doesnt make you a bad person. Attacking an uninvolved third party in a debate makes you a bit petty however. All men are pigs....this is fact. All women bitch....this is a fact.

It is in fact great to be me. I have nothing to bitch about. Ive also learned it does little to solve issues. The same Im sure cannot be said about you or your sisters in arms.

Methinks all men bitch too - we just call it complaining. :mrgreen:

I wonder why a fine caring woman would bitch so much. Is it possible she married a jackass?

That happened to me once. These days, I rarely bitch. Except, once in a blue moon, at him, for failing to pay for his share of the kids' expenses.

If, however, he did what he was legally committed to do, I can guarantee, with 100% certainty, that I would NEVER bitch at him because I want as little to do with him as possible.

In fact Ive been called alot worse,jackass I can live with. Strangely enough the bitching usually doesnt revolve around me. I think the term 'bitching' kinda embodies complaining about the trivial minutia in life. She saves the real bombardments for serious matters.
 
They should be ecstatic. I mean, they have half the money and ALL the p***y!

I think a lot of us who have careers grew up in homes with SAH moms. And I've realized that my mom's home sets a standard of perfection that mine is never going to attain, because she was there full-time. Hell, my house would be twice as clean if I only worked 4 days a week. But, I have (really) 2 days a week to clean, fix things, do the yardwork, etc. If I do one of those things, the other two get dropped or done less well. I do mow the yard every week, we vacuum the entire house once a week, I sweep/mop once a week, and we do dishes daily. The kids have assigned house-cleaning chores. Even so, there are a lot of days when I come home from work and have to go automatically into drill sergeant mode because I live with two teenagers, 4 cats, a dog and a bunny.

They make messes. :shrug:

However, I grew up in a perfect house. We could never make a mess, if something got broken all hell broke loose, and that is no way to live. My house will never be more important to me than my kids and their friends feeling comfortable and welcome in my home. Which is probably why there is hardly a weekend when my house isn't full of teenagers. I'm okay with that. I'll have 40 or more years to have an immaculate house when my kids are grown and gone.

I have to commend you for that. You seem to have it together. Assigning things the right priority is the most important thing, although not always the easiest. I do the best I can, and those who don' like it can go pound sand - as long as my husband is happy with my way of doing things who cares what others may thing.

My mom helped my dad with a business they owned, but she didn't have to work inordinate hours, so I feel like I had a normal childhood. My grandmother was there all day (she was the disciplinarian, and very old fashioned, she didn't like that we wore shorts and wanted my dad to get after us for doing so). We turned out all right with a working mom, and I have never felt guilty about working, as long as I provide good care for my kids.
 
Some woman are happy some arent.Some people in general are happy and some arent.So it always has been and so it will forever be.

If you were paying attention, you might have realized certain things you apparently have yet too.

Oh look, I’m being cryptic…

Hint.

What does my comment to John and AmericanSon have to do with you?

Seriously. The bulk of us have been adults for quite some time, and this is old news to us.

Adult, huh... Does that mean you actually take responsibility for your own life, or is it just something up to date mods say?

Mods? Don't know where you're going with that one, but yes. I do take responsibility for my own life. Anything else just flat-out sucks.

I had three wives. The first was over compliant, went along with everything I said, even picked up my dirty clothes. She died early, apologetic to the end. My second wife, a school teacher, molded me into her own image for awhile until I rebelled.

My third wife pretty much fits the description of yours, bitches, moans, screams, blames me for everything, At first I fought back, but that got me nowhere. Now I say nothing, let her have her spells with no opposition, and we have periods of actual tranquility.

Of course, I still fight back once in a while, just to let her know I'm still there, at least once a week.

No resistance, no power, as electrical engineers know, and that seems to also apply to humans.

ummm... most adults take responsibility for their lives, otherwise this world would be in anarchy.




PS And women still are not happy... and we have no reason why.

But we have reasons.

Obviously, there is no single reason.

Having options does not always mean that those options are appealing. Further, the option to be a stay at home mom is less an option than it used to be, with many/most families requiring a second income.

Or only income - yes.

How about this theory:

Women aren't happy because while they can 'have it all' in theory... nobody can do it all. Men or women and when they figure out that something has to 'give' it's a cold, hard smack of reality. Supermom does not exist and in fact, she's damned tired of trying to be everything to everyone.

How's that.
