I do think it’s nice now that both men and women are realizing that they can take on more roles. Both should be more sensitive partners, nurturing parents, tough business people, etc. I just don’t think everyone needs to “do it all.” It’s a lot of pressure and stress to try and do all/be all. Do your best and work on your weaknesses. That’s about all that people should strive for.
Hello Cathy friends! Happy Monday! Have a great day, all!
I don’t think Irving is concentrating on the important things to be. Let us see now: tough business people – good, fair business people ok but tough isn’t really important. Brilliant investors – not needed as you just have to retain a financial advisor who is. Nurturing parents – yes. Sensitive spouses – yes (if you have a spouse that is). Community leader – ok – but you don’t have to be a leader so long as you are involved in your community. Fabulous athlete -nope – unless you are a professional one. Abs of steel – nope. Great hair – nope.

Ah, ah, ah! Cathy, smugness is NOT being sensitive! Besides, which of us (of either gender) succeed in doing all of those? Zero percent!

Yes, cookie cutter people. Let’s just all be the same person
