Oh dear !
Women are not the happy little vegemites feminists make them out to be. I am
still looking for the "SUPERMOM" that they bragged about, actually excists.
That is one that is not stressed out of her brain and emotionally wrecked.
But on it goes, wimmin can fulfill their lives by being single mothers as
it's a piece of cake. There are strong, independent wommin everywhere, but
they failed to mention also is when you are on your own and have a child
there are some obvious issues that are going to arise.
1. Not too many men I know wants to raise and pay for someone else's bastard
child.
2. Men know only to well that in that type of a relationship they will
definately come third.
3. You would have to make an appointment just to spend some time with her.
4. You could end up paying child support and vaginamoney for the next 20 odd
years..
Women have really gone out of their way to make themselves unnapproachable,
best ignored and left to their own end..
There is always the Guvmint willing to pay another couple of billion dollars
to help them along. The poor dears. Life is just sooooo..hard. More so when
it's self imposed and scripted..
Aussie mums unfulfilled - study
By Tara Ravens
July 05, 2008 03:51pm
LESS than 20 per cent of mothers are highly functioning at work and
fulfilled at home, and find parenthood a positive experience, a national
conference has heard.
The women in this group tend to report the highest level of job control
while working average office and domestic hours, according to Ibolya Losoncz
from the Australian Government Department of Families and Community
Services.
To better understand the work-family life experience, Ms Losoncz has
profiled mothers based on a variety of characteristics.
Speaking at the Australian Population Association's heath biennial
conference in Alice Springs, Ms Losoncz said she had identified six major
groups.
She called the largest cluster of women - at 21 per cent of those
surveyed - the Treading Water group.
"While they experience a considerable tension between work and family
activities, they are coping," Ms Losoncz said.
The second largest group were the Highly Functioning and Fulfilled.
"On a family level, this cluster reported the lowest average working
hours," Ms Losoncz said.
"This cluster also reported the highest satisfaction with family
relationships, division of household tasks and adequate level of support
from others, as well as the highest physical and mental health scores."
Guilty Copers - 17 per cent of working mothers - worried about what went
on with their children while they were at work.
They also felt working left them with little energy to be the kind of
parent they wanted to be.
"The two highly functioning clusters share the common characteristics of
low combined paid and unpaid working hours, low average working hours per
adults in the family and low stress at work," Ms Losoncz said.
"Mothers in the Highly Functioning and Fulfilled cluster tend to hold
non-traditional gender roles, which is reflected in their average hours in
paid work."
The fourth largest cluster - 16 per cent - managed the day to day impact
of the work-life nexus well although they strongly disagreed with the idea
that working made them a better a parent.
"These mothers may be indifferent to the working mother ideal, yet they
are rather successful at it," Ms Losoncz said.
Aspiring but Struggling mothers made up 15 per cent and were the most
likely to have two or more children under 15 years of age.
"They are also the most likely to be separated or divorced, to be highly
educated, to be employees and be permanent workers," Ms Losoncz said.
The remaining 13 per cent of mothers fell into the Indifferent and
Struggling category.
The two clusters of women who experienced strong work-family tensions were
both characterised by long working hours, high work overload and a lack of
support.
Before completing her research, Ms Losoncz says she wants to link these
findings with child wellbeing.

In regard to "vaginamoney", we dont have alimony in Australia. Which
is a good thing IMO!

I was having a discussion about this subject yesterday with a male |
friend of mine. After an expensive divorce, he now prefers to date
women who own their own home and are financially set up. He also
prefers women who have adult children, so there is no difficulty with
dealing with young children.

Oh yes!!!!! Australia is a welfare economy. If you dont want to work,
you can live very comfortably here! Many people now choose not to work
as they are financially better off on welfare!

Working paper no.16 Feb 1999
Spousal support in Australia: A study of incidence and attitudes
Juliet Behrens and Bruce Smyth
There has been some discussion over the last several years about
whether
there is likely to be any change in the very low levels of payment
and
receipt of spousal support that have been found to exist in Australia
(Parker, Parkinson & Behrens 1994, p. 546; Finlay, Bailey-Harris &
Otlowski 1997, pp. 192-6). Both empirical and ideological factors tend
to
indicate that there will be a continuing decline in spousal support.
Empirical factors include the extent of child support obligations
reducing
the capacity to pay spousal support in some cases, and women's
increasing participation in the paid workforce reducing need. As
regards
ideology, the growing trend towards individualism works against
situations where one adult is required to support another, and there
may
also be an associated increase in the desire of payees to achieve a
'clean break' from their spouse.
However, there are factors that point the other way. These include
the
increasing emphasis in government policy on private over public
support
(of which the child support scheme is evidence), increasing
understanding about the continuing economic disadvantage that women
suffer compared with men in the paid workforce (Funder 1993) and on
marriage breakdown (Weston 1986, 1993), and a greater sense of the
appropriateness of sharing the economic costs within marriage in the
post-separation financial and property arrangements (Harrison,
Funder & McDonald 1993).

" Spousal support " IS Alimony. Duh !

Advice to young men: Do not marry, do not have children
By Stephen Baskerville web posted November 12, 2007
Evidence indicates that, as men discover all this, they have already
begun
an impromptu marriage "strike": refusing to marry or start families,
knowing they
can be criminalized if their wife files for divorce. "Have anti-
father family court
policies led to a men's marriage strike?" ask Glenn Sacks and Dianna
Thompson
in the Philadelphia Enquirer. In Britain, fathers tour university
campuses warning
young men not to start families. In his book, From Courtship to
Courtroom,
Attorney Jed Abraham concludes that the only protection for men to
avoid losing
their children and everything else is not to start families in the
first place.
http://www.ifeminists.net/introduction/editorials/2003/0812.html
He uses what has become a new term -- at least in the mouths of men:
"the
marriage strike." Most of the men who go "on strike" undoubtedly do so
quietly
but others are making a loud political statement. For example, the
Joint
Parenting Association declares, "An international 'marriage strike' by
men is
set to continue indefinitely until Family Law is reformed to recognize
that
fathers love their children too."

Oh yes!!!!! Australia is a welfare economy. If you dont want to work,
you can live very comfortably here! Many people now choose not to work
as they are financially better off on welfare!

With all of the women ONLY financial transfer programs available to
women, your sarcasm is ill placed, unfounded, and idiotic, as well as
being blindingly misandristically sexist.
