Originally posted by SupremeSpod View PostI'm not bottling it at all, I'm not entering into a debate about my family, I'm merely pointing out that you've probably offended quite a few step-parents.
As for upsetting step parents, well, they should be thicker skinned, for I am sure my opinion is simply that. It is something I believe to be true, so why should I care, if I am being true in my opinion?Comment

I have a very good friend, whom I consider like a brother. I'd put my kids in front of him, and know he'd do the same in the same situation with his own kids.
I am genuinely sorry, but if you don't have your own kids, you can't really objectively get into a conversation about how it feels. You just can't.Comment

And that's all manifested by the vast majority of couples choosing a traditionalist gender role distribution the moment kids come into play.Comment
