There are many feminists who are married, not depressed, frolic in the sun, aren’t vegan, with great jobs, don’t watch the news and love their husband very much. There are many Christian wives who are married, frolic in the sun, aren’t vegan, quit their terrible job, don’t watch the news...

100% wrong according to your bias. Not 100% wrong in reality. I answer your questions just fine.

Oh and to answer your question about what ideology do I think is evil, that would be chauvinism, specifically exaggerated patriotism, which this country has a real issue with.

The ideology itself isn’t evil. That is your take on it. Not everyone believes that it is an evil ideology and many aren’t even feminists themselves. There are some that have taken that ideology and evolved it into something evil themselves, but the ideology as it stands without their...

I haven’t listened to the second video yet, but one doesn’t need to be in a traditional marriage to have those things. Not all feminist women are the opposite of what she describes. You are blanketing the whole movement with a relatively small subset of bad actors with the same blanket. Should...

Again, your opinion? My fiance is 45 and I am 50. We’re not in our early 20’s where our priorities are to have kids, get a career, etc. We both work for the state, so we’re set with our jobs. She has been here for 20 years come January. Ten more years and she’ll get full retirement. I will be...

I agree with this. However, there are those who will tell you it is indeed a matter of life or death. You must have missed where I explained this before. If there is a conflict on something that needs to be purchased, the discussion will get tabled. If after time has gone by and we still...

I feel like I am not sufficiently explaining everything to show that the way we will do marriage is not a license to fail. It is how we have come to the decision run our marriage based off of us, based off how we do things and how we are as a couple now. We know that a traditional marriage will...

Neither of us want this for our marriage. I am not a leader, never have been and have no want or need to lead. She doesn’t want me having final say on what goes on as she knows it is a heavy burden to bear and doesn’t want me to bear it alone. This is why we’re egalitarian. I saw it work well...

This I will do, but so will my fiancé. We are both responsible for the household, not just me. She doesn’t want me taking all of the responsibility for the household. I agree and she doesn’t too and will also sacrifice first at times. Remember, her and I are in this together. We will both...

Lol

We're fans of the show Outlander and both have minor Scottish roots, so it seemed natural, little did we know we would be torturing ourselves. hlf

That's cool guys! My fiance and I are going through Duolingo to learn Scottish Gaelic. It's a bit rough to learn, but we're continuing through it.

No one is trolling the thread. The OP has said different viewpoints are welcome. She is the thread’s author, not Wrangler. She has dictated that viewpoints other than her own are allowed to contribute in this thread and has expressed thanks for those viewpoints even though she does not agree...

Why are you ignoring what she herself has said? She said that viewpoints other than her own are allowed in this thread. This make what we’re talking about on-topic.

Which you are free to do. As we are free to discuss what we’re discussing as it is on-topic.

As I said, I forgive you for name calling. What you are failing to read in her OP is that she wants discussion whether we agree or disagree and she expects opposition. I cannot be a troll if the OP is welcoming different viewpoints from her own. In her latest post she even stated that she...

It really does make sense! I watched my grandparents marriage as I was growing up as my mom was a single mom and theirs was egalitarian before I think the word was ever mainstream so to speak. So, I have done my best to emulate them. They were married for 59 years before my grandmom passed...

I forgive you for the name calling. There is a nice way to get someone to do what you want them to to do and name calling isn’t it.

My purpose in this thread is to show that there is other viewpoints and ways of doing things that actually work for marriages. That there isn’t a cookie cutter way of doing marriage. It is also to say that not all of feminism is evil as you portray. I had said that we will have to agree to...
