Can anybody help me understand women’s traditional position.

I don’t understand how women take being wives and mothers so seriously.

I can only speak for myself when I say this, but a big part of how I can take my role as a wife and mother so seriously is due to my faith. As a Catholic, I believe marriage is a vocation and something God specifically gave to me. Motherhood of course stems from that. There is no higher calling for me, and I would be a fool to not take it as seriously as one would take any other career. Shaping the minds, hearts and souls of my children is serious work.

What I mean is, men make it very clear, that isn’t as good as being like them.

I’ve never heard this before? The men I know acknowledge women are different, but they have never said that it isn’t as good as being like them.

So why aren’t women becoming doctors, lawyers, astronomers, etc.

They are. I believe these fields are still male-dominated, but many women become the above professions and have the freedom to do so.

I’m not saying being a mom a horrible and unworthy position. I’m saying it’s weird how that dynamic works. With the man being the head of the house, it seems, to me at least, women are content to take that position as under him.

Women who have trustworthy, capable, loving husbands ARE content to take that position under him. It’s freeing and a wonderful way to live out marriage and life.

Way back when, women didn’t want to vote. They were happy just to be wives and mothers and be political through their husbands.

Plenty of women wanted to vote and they fought for that right. Some women didn’t and were content “staying in their lane” to focus on their families. Neither one is wrong.

I don’t understand? They say we want equality, but are happy being just a housewife. Or not being drafted into the military.

Having read a lot of your posts (and I mean no offense when I say this), until you can see the value of a housewife and SAHM, it’s very easy to have this mindset. Housewives are not “less than.” We have ambitions, goals and aspirations. We have hobbies and interests, some of which I’m sure would truly surprise you. We are intelligent, thoughtful and have some very strong opinions on topics like politics, the world, technology, and history.

A lot of SAHMs are not content and look outside the home to fill that void either with clubs or a career, but there are many, many of us who find nothing but joy in being nurturing and caring for our husbands and children. I’ve had a career, and it in no way fulfilled me in the same way being a wife and mother does.

I am Catholic so my faith shapes my feelings on things , so I can only speak from that perspective. Being a wife and a mother is the most important thing I will do, I am helping shape the future. My job is no less valuable than doctors and lawyers, it is diffrerent. Every job and person has worth so I am supportive of women in the workforce especially doctors because I will only females. I wonder if men not viewing it as vaulable is more an issue of where you live. I live in the US in a very conservative state, mothers and wives are valued here. It probably varies greatly on many factors. I have issues being 'under' my husband. I guess I can see why the term might have negative image. But to me it means, he is looking out and taking care of us. He is currently working in 113° for 10 hours . When he gets home he is going to be so glad to see us and no matter how tired he is or how much he hurts ,he will spend time listening to how my day was and offer to help in some way (I try very hard not take advantage of this). It seems like you have been given a very bad impression of anything other than being a career woman. I think it is important to spend some time actually looking into what you want, not what otjers told you should want. Like others have said not everyone is the same and different choices are valid.

You ask this question about every few days. The answers don't change. If they don't resonate with you then they just don't.

For most women, at least for me, the following is true: we want to be with guys who are better than us in many facets of life: bigger, stronger, more financially secure, smarter and more successful. I think this is the only way we will respect the guy. That’s why I am more than happy to take the back seat and build him up. On the other hand, men’s biggest desire above everything is to be respected so it works. Also, keep in mind that a woman’s value is in part based on the caliber of a man she can keep. Therefore, in the social hierarchy, it benefits us to be with the best man possible.
