I didnt say that the traditional way was the only way. What i said was that it is my preference. Soley because i have no need for my better half to earn and i prefer my children to have unfettered time with their mom. I would liken it to an "equal but different" relationship. We can both have different roles which are as important as each other. Equality isnt about symmetry. We dont have to do identical things to be equals.

i am certainly not averse to women having careers. I have worked with alot of competent woman and i agree, they should be paid as much as their male counterparts.
