I once sworn that I am never going to marry a foreigner because of that issue with Asian women marrying foreigners. In Asia, people had some notion that when a woman marries a foreigner, it's because of his wealth. This gives an impression that the woman has no capability of acquiring wealth by her own work. Now it's just funny.
NHB, that's why I'm still single. I am making sure that whoever my man would be, he's reliable enough for me to be able to trust hima and his decisions. I have no issues with trust. Depends on the man though.
Personally, I wouldn't want to be working and building a career and get busy with what I've had my education for. But I am sure that there would come a time that I would want to be "a stay at home mum" because I wouldn't want to depend my child's upbringing and care to other people. So, no I wouldn't be ashamed to say I want to be a stay at home mum.
NHB, I think that believing in something and being proud of it is cool.
I think people tend to say it's antiquated to believe traditional roles because we all want to be free of stigma and discrimination, along with women empowerment in originally a man's world.
Men and women are equal but not the same according to the books I've read. The inclination of each gender to do certain activities and like certain things is because their brains are hardwired to it. The males are better in parking, maps, likes mechanical things (toys or no toys,) and problem solving. While the females are more concerned on the emotions, relationships, details and like cute and cuddly things. Men are hunters and women are nest defenders the books said. So no matter how modern the world is, the gender roles would always go back to the woman being in the kitchen, and the men being the provider.
