One thought on “Most British women would pick being a housewife over having a career”

1. Exactly, women want the choice not to work; not the choice to work more. Yet all we hear is not enough women in STEM or politics. What about the women who do not want to be there. Affirmative action and funding of women’s education more than men is unfair. It just makes it easier for women; who are not a disenfranchised class as they exist on every level of society in all classes in a the same ratios as men. It just pushes women into a position where they have no choice, because there are not enough well educated men to support them and they are the one’s with education and training. Women should have the choice to prioritize having children, breastfeeding and caring for children. It is not that men should not have this choice as well, but if we leave both sexes alone, my guess is that in the majority of cases it would make more sense for the woman to make this choice. And it is not a bad life, caring for kids. It is actually quite joyful, if feminism and society would stop making it sound like slave labor for a second then maybe more people would discover that it is not so bad. And housewives/husbands can work and bring in money, not as much as if they had a steady job; but being a housewife/husband does not mean not making money.
