Career Women (65)
MADDOG69: Yes I kept it in a white tub. I removed the labels on it... so it was white. So she looked in it and guessed it to be washing powder. I mean it had a strawberry smell of it.
Same as that except red label is gone.
Here in Ireland, Washing Powder is sold in cardboard boxes with big coloured labels. It doesn't come in white plastic tubs.

Time for me to go.
Night, night!
(Don't you sleep?)

I do, but I'm travelling tomorrow PM. Nothing is on in the AM except bed.
venusenvy: This is kinda redundant. Most women these days have no choice in the matter.
True, and I think that women need to have the ability to be self-sufficient. I think the days of old when women stayed home to raise the kids etc. are tough to accomplish giving the economics of today's society. As well, I think that men overall don't want to bear the burden of taking care of someone who is more than capable of working and contributing. They may not always say it, but I think the times are changing.
yes I went out with a career woman but eventually her career took over our relationship I supported her in everything she done college work up and downs but I wasn't her numero uno she started not turning up for social occasions we had planned even when we were supposed to be together shed ring and cancel I moved on best of luck to anyone that can balance it its not easy
Cyn_Real: there are many women in Asian who are successful in both of career and family... in this case, I don't talk about celebrity standard...
There are far more that not what a western would term "successful" in Asia, It is normal for a husband and wife to go off to different cities to find work and leave the kiddies with the grandparents, the "couple" meet maybe two times a year, if you call that successful, well fine, but most couples actually like to spend time together, as a FAMILY not a few weeks a year, when all they do is argue.
China is full of loveless marriages, as money is everything, love is a rude word and responsibility has become the replacement, so very sad IMO
Thankfully my students can see this failure and vow to stop this way of life.
lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?
Yeah............did it for years. But the most important is home.
I´m lookin for a new career now........any suggestions
????
lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?
Mostly when they are alone, no kids or grown up kids. I gave up a lot to have my son and to give him the best start in life. And I am a single mother. I will never prefer a career than more quality time with my child.

How many ??? Asia is not only China... if all people are failed, then nobody will follow this way... and I don't want to follow "the failed" as well... find solution is not always by destroying all the building...

China has the largest population in the world, so you do the maths.
I didn't say all the people, I said it is normal in China, am I wrong??
And I read your post the other day where you suggested that young people fall in love, then get married and the love becomes responsibility. Money has taken over everything in China sadly, young girls still seek a man who has a house, excellent job (money) and now a car, before even considering dating let alone marriage.
If you think I am wrong then visit the mainland and see what I see every day. Love is a dirty word in China!!
I do appreciate that HK is more forward thinking and romance can be found there, but in the rest of China

In a deluded world sure. It's inevitable that splitting focus on responsibilities leads to neglect of one or another responsibility. Eventually that neglected area will have consequences. Sometimes both areas will suffer.
Of course a lot of males are allowing this for fear of being gender ostracized but the stats of divorce rose significantly in the wake of females demanding careers.
I don't see a whole of happy people these days, as regards relationships and the sheer plethora of dating sites filled with failed relationships in the advent of feminist ideology is a tragically obvious indicator.
Success is relative. Even being alone can be a success. I guess it depends on what one would sacrifice. I think there's room for a woman to pursue things that she loves doing but having said that, if she doesn't love doing her man, then an obvious choice to discount him has been made.
I dont think this is gender dependant but the OP questions- women and careers.

Some men might be afraid of a career woman but not all.

You damn right we are afraid of you in the same way a farmer fears a swarm of grasshoppers eating everything that is green including the seed crop for next year..You believed the feminist's lies.. Now you have to get a job..It's not a choice any longer..That's why you are more and more unhappy as you age..

Because divorce is still against the government's wishes, so of course the divorce rate is small, but how many are in marriages that are filled with hatred rather than love? how many of my students tell me how they loth going home for the spring festival because "Mum and Dad" will be shouting and screaming the whole time.
Sure the parents are being financially responsible, but where is the love where is the affection??
Hiya Riz! Long time no see ...As for the question...Do we really have a choice? I know I didnt...
venusenvy: Hiya Riz! Long time no see ...As for the question...Do we really have a choice? I know I didnt...
Hi
All good here, hope finds you the same, Do we have a choice regarding Divorce? Nope same for me, she wanted a new life and went for it, shame he left soon after
Gotta love Karma venusenvy: Hiya Riz! Long time no see ...As for the question...Do we really have a choice? I know I didnt...
Ah maybe you mean the OPs question 
I guess I'm tired lol, Well most western people as well as here in China, need a certain monthly income, and, sadly one income is usually well short of the monthly outgoings, so nope no choice here either 
lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?
Some women can do it other struglle but it is not because of "we women" it is because of pure determinism.
jac379: Many a lesson did I have in feminism from my dad, starting at the age of about 6 years old.
I don't think he would have called it feminism - to him it was merely fair, logical and a matter of respect.
It hasn't made me unhappy either. Au contraire also.

And you grew up on a developed country while I did in a "third world country" as some people classifies Latin-America!
i think women should have a career but as someone who stayed at home and sacrificed mine for hers i feel the tax system should reflect that in pension contributions as it does for women imho

I understand your point...btw, 5 people failed between 1000 successful... I'd rather join the 1000... some are failed and unhappy...but not all people... if all couples are unhappy, nobody will follow this way... thanks...
In my opinion;
"Woman are better in combining;
they want the best for both"
I would be proud of her!

lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?
It is often not a choice nowadays if the woman has to work or want to stay home as a full-time mum, sometimes it's just a must financially.
Having a qualification and being employable is important, you never know what happens.
I'm very thankful for all the support and possibilities my parents gave me. 
I think it depends on the women, some can and some are unable to cope, but if we are talking about home, I presume family, surely that's not only the women's job?!?

Where is China? Where is Hong Kong on that list?
MADDOG69: Where is China? Where is Hong Kong on that list?
Oh I see it down the page on new statistics.
!I think we have to make a difference between having a job and career. It is not the same. Not climbing the career ladder doesn't mean you are unemployed.
Obstinance_Works: Yes, of course they can. But statistically speaking;
They're less likely to get married.
If they do get married, they're more likely to divorce.
She is more likely to cheat on her Husband.
She is much less likely to have kids.
If she does have kids, she is more likely to be unhappy about it.
He will be unhappy if she makes more than him.
She will be unhappy if she makes more than him.
And saving the best until the last: the Husband is more likely to fall ill. A study found that a Wife who works under 40 hours a week had no impact on her Husband's health, but a Wife who worked over 40 hours a week had, and I quote, a "substantial, statistically significant, negative effects on changes in her husband’s health over that time span". Awesome.

What a load of bull!
So if I work 40 hours a week my husband is fit and healthy but if I work 41 hours he declines in health. Statistics like these have no meaning or value as you well know.
More time should be spent coming up with meaningful statistics as to the health of women who try to combine work and home responsibilities because more often than not it is women who bear the brunt of this not men. Women remain the carers in society despite the forward moves in equality.
It is "statistically" proven however that married men are generally healthier than single men yet single women are healthier than married women. Wonder why??
I can say from experience that I have always worked a a married woman with children, never regretted having children as your statistics suggest, at times earned more than my husband, and there were no problems with this either. Only the most insecure men could possibly concur with the statistics you quote.

Where do you store your protein supplement?
