Soon one day society will break down if this continues.It happens in big cities where people get all kinds of strange new ideas about how to act,when the old ways work best and there is a good reason for it.
When I marry my girlfriend next year it will not be like this.I will work, and she will cook and clean and do her duties.She knows this already and she agrees with me.I will make a list of my duties and she will have hers.When things are organised and everyone knows where they stand,it results in smoothness and efficiency.When men act like flowers it is detrimental.
I'm sorry. I didn't realise that you had just dropped straight out of the pages of a Dickensian novel!
What you are witnessing are the hard fought result of the emancipation of women. No longer are women repressed by men, told what to do and how to behave as if they have a particular role in society whether they like it or not.
And I'm also sorry that your upbringing seems to have given you such a homophobic attitude towards anything other than the stereotype butch male. It's pretty clear that you are a typical, old fashioned kind of Christian after all, who yearns for the old days of women knowing their place and children being beaten when they are naughty and the proud man at the head of the table carving the Sunday roast with pride that he has provided for his family, with no thanks to the poor women who slaved all day to cook it.
I expect to you, the Enlightenment was just something that happened to other people!
Quite frankly I find you attitudes quite primitive and extremely tribal and it's very sad that they exist to this day in even a minority of the population.
I may be wrong but I think this sums your attitude up nicely.
