What's a feminist?

[Zoiderman]

As an example, NotAllThere has proven that she is far better at debate, cutting wit and controlled sarcasm than you are

And also as thick as a Welshman when it comes to maths.

So your definition of inequality is one person being dependent on another? I'm not sure that's right.

WHS.

We have a family. All resources are for the benefit of the family. It doesn't matter who earns it.

Money is not and shouldn't be used as a weapon to settle differences or assert authority/control.

If that happens you've got more to worry about than whose turn it is to wear the trousers.

I guess that 6 fingered welshness of yours has affected the brain. The fool confused a line, with a maze....

Seems like its done you too.

Shouldn't be surpised given how you troggs like to share your familial love around

Is RH really Chris Tarrant?

There is a fundamental problem that a stay at home mum (or dad, but usually mum) is not financially independent, and therefore not 'equal' (and is why child benefit is important). Which is fine if you're in a solid, well-balanced relationship, but not so fine when you're not, and becomes a total mess when that relationship finishes (see the many 'she's fleecing me' threads on this and other sites). Dunno what the answer is though.

Well, yes, there is a problem there. Unfortunately I don't know what the answer is either, but adjusting things so that neither men nor women are financially independent and children get raised by the state is definitely not it IMO.

I was at a pub quiz about 20 odd years ago, and my missus casually mentioned(laughingly) that when I gave her x pounds that week, it was already spent.
Her cousin was there, and she went white and her jaw hit the table. She was absolutely horrified, and explained to me that in future I should hand over all my money, and get some weekly spends and expenses back off the missus

I think about this a lot. Its all to do with what you say, independance, power, control etc
are any of us innocent

Perhaps in your household you're better at managing the finances.
