Why do you think that in relationship the man gets the last word to make a decision. You said only one person should make the last decision, but why can't it be the woman?
Hello Anon. :) Are you the same one, or different? Anyway, as I just said before, I love women, but I’m a fan of traditional gender roles. It doesn’t make the man “better”, because men and women are equal in value & worth.
However, they ARE NOT the same. They have very specific roles to fill, and when it comes to the man in the relationship, it’s simply his right (and his duty & purpose, in fact) to lead his family. Of course as I’ve said before, decisions should be discussed ahead of time between partners, but there comes a time when one of them must have the last, definitive word, and I think it should be the man / husband.
You might think that gives us carte blanche to be tyrants, but it SO doesn’t. Women aren’t slaves, they’re our partners, and we theirs. And leadership isn’t easy. When you’re in charge, everything is your fault, good AND bad, so a man has a heavy burden if he takes the traditional view of things.
While we’re talking, I should mention that this stuff only applies if the man is doing his job and making his best effort at striving to provide for his family. If a woman is in a relationship with a man who isn’t worth the powder it’d take to blow him up (that is, lazy, neglectful, not providing for the family’s main, basic needs - food, shelter, clothes, etc… not diamonds every week lol), then he can’t very well expect to wear the pants. Know what I mean?
Also, in practical terms, a family needs a leader. You can’t have both partners in charge. You just can’t. When it comes down to it, one needs to have the ultimate say.
As for why it can’t be the woman… lol will the world end if the family dynamic is such that the woman is in charge? No. But I don’t believe that’s the best way for a family to operate. Men are meant to lead, and women are meant to be their support. Make no mistake, men need women every bit as much as you need us - just in different ways.
I hope this helps. Have a great day, Anon! :)
