It looks like Miss Lizard is on our side in the war. :wink:

But, I don't do any of the stereotypically male things, either. I never watch football (or other sports). Plus, I play the violin. And, I go to museums and classical concerts.

The US government wanted women to stop being women and go out to work.

Why?

So that they could rake in double the amount of tax.

So,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the women fell for the con, burned their bras, went out to work, and 40 years later the government is very happy with how their evil plan came to fruition.

Women's lib was NOTHING to do with freeing women and everything to do with making them tax slaves to the super rich.
You fell for it hook, line, and sinker girls.

Wow I cannot believe what I am reading! You do realize that women with jobs frees men as well? What do you think women should do? Sit around hoping Prince Charming will come along and support them? Well, dude, it doesn't happen. Men don't want to support women. That's life.

You are free to go home and wait for princess charming. According to you, this will contribute to better payment, so what are you waiting for?

This would only work if all women suddenly decided to become housewives.

One person making this decision will have zero effect on the overall economy.

Since we don't anticipate the labour supply to halve itself any time soon, no-one can reasonably expect a return to the good old days.

But it wasn't that great. Men resented having to be the sole provider for a ginormous family. Nothing they could do about it though. Now the woman can go out and work like the man and they both provide for the ginormous family. Sounds fairer for the man, no?

And if one persons has zero effect, then 1.000.000 persons alos wouldnt change anything. 1.000.000 x 0 = 0

I think that a better solution is to reduce the workforce through earlier retirement. Instead, they're talking about raising the retirement age to 70. How is an old guy in his sixties going to compete against a younger and more technologically adept younger person? Industries are going under left and right, so simply staying at a job as overpaid dead weight doesn't seem like it is going to be an option for most.

Well, sure. The men could stay home, while the women go out to work, and we would probably have an even better result. The only historic example we have is of an earlier day when women stayed home and men marched off obediently to work.

Actually the best and most obvious solution is for people to limit the amount of children they produce.

What if it was a 1 child policy where females are desired and not males to be born?
