girls these days are brought up on a diet of feminist magazines, encouraging them to forfeit love/children for a career, encouraging them that serial monogamy is acceptable to them and that a life as a mum in suburbia is not what they want. By the time they realise that it actually IS what they want, it's often too late.

I'm curious to know your opinions...Guys' opinions preferred, but girls' opinions are okay as long as you don't get defensive. sweatingbullets.gif

Would you prefer a traditional girl, or the "modern" one?
Does it intimidate guys, or does the idea of an "independent" woman appeal to them? ph34r.gif

Sorry if this has been discussed already, I can't find the thread.
If this is in the wrong place, please feel free to move. sweatingbullets.gif
I have internet connection problems.

And no, I don't have a 411...yet.

You know, to be honest, I think I'd prefer the traditional one more.
That said, I have nothing against "modern" ones either, and am not really intimidated or anything.

I just think it's simpler the way it's been, without having to think of workarounds for who's gonna be looking after the kids while so&so etc.
Ehh.

I'm good with both in the end, lul.
But feminists =/= modern woman. Most of em take it way too far.
They spout on about being equal, yet still want guys to propose; bar fights being attacks against women, etcetc XDD

LOL yeah that's what my mother and my father always fight about biggrin.gif
I myself as a woman, doesn't understand that "why women always talk about being equal with men, yet they still want a compensation. Like... If a couple lives in a house, one day, the roof is broken. Women sure want men to repair it. Why? Women said that they are equal to men. But why?"

I want to ask that question with my mom, but I'm afraid that she would freak out tongue.gif

That's why I put quotation marks on the word "modern". sweatingbullets.gif
And yes, it was simpler, the way it was in the past.
But I've heard some guys actually prefer girls to be independent like that...or liberated like that. blink.gif Some think it's a major turn on, BUT-
In the end, most of them are too shy to approach them rofl.

Yeah... The law used to be less harsh with women, like lesser punishment, and women actually want equal rights with that? crazy.gif
They should take advantage of that ph34r.gif
