so this is the article that enraged a whole lot of people...women, mostly... sparked off debates all over the West...seems like no matter how liberated we think we are, it just takes a silly man to get our hackles up...the article itself is not as full of lies as is made out to be...tho yes it does generalise and simplify stuff to the point of being ridiculous. like the notion that a professional career woman will most probably vamoose with her slick colleague...duh, yes, if her spouse happens to be an uncouth slob....michael noer works on the premise thats the fantasy of most unevolved men in the world....a perfect wife is the one who stays at home, happy pottering about with the duster, whose only aim is to please her lord....:-))) sheeeeesh, beam me back to the 21st, scotty!!

what ultimately matters, feminism, chauvinism and all isms be damned, is free will...whether you choose to marry or not, have babies or not, be a stay-at-home mom or a working mom (thats another sticky issue that never seems to have a resolution)...and live through the consequences....

marriage will forever remain a project between two adults that requires immense amounts of patience, respect, tolerance and compromise....especially when you marry the one you choose and love...
and motherhood, wow kaboom, thats just a huge life-altering dimension altogether....exhausting, mind-numbing, exhilarating, never-ending, frustrating, reducing-t0-abject-tears, humbling, enlightening experience which can age you 65 one instant and make you feel like a 2 year old the other...its like signing away the next 16 years of your life at the very least....ah, life!
