Here are a few things that I see from time to time that cause me to shake my head.
1. It is a cardinal sin these days to say "that's womens work". But there isn't a problem saying "that's a man's job".
2. People have trouble with viewing the male in a marriage as the leader but when something isn't put in order by the man the way someone else thinks it ought to be then they have no problem saying "Be a man".
These are 2 small examples of how people contradict their own words demonstrating that they don't really want true equality... they just want equality when it benefits one side or the argument.
Do you have any thoughts on these examples or do you have any examples of your own to share?

Men don't like to do "women's" work oftentimes because they feel they are too good to do it. Women don't like to do "men's" work oftentimes because _________. I'd feel more comfortable having a woman fill in the blank there.
There can't be equality as long as one side feels its too good to do the work of the other side.
