If my own current husband was suddenly a stay-at-home dad, it would be emasculating. That would be hard for me.

My mother was predominately a stay-at-home mom.

I think I would make a lousy stay-at-home mom. It just wouldn't suit me.

When I'm home, I cook my own dinner, all organic.

Interestingly, one thing I've found that neither women nor men give up on is the idea of men as protectors. Even in cases where the woman is earning more, they'll often tell me that if there were a fire or something, they would expect the man to be the one to protect them.

For women in, say, Alabama, 'feminism' is a dirty word. They would never march in the streets. But although they don't think of themselves as the beneficiaries of feminism, they are.
