About work. I feel like being housewives are under appreciated and exploited for their whole life. If women chooses to be one, why should they suffer under it?
I'm not born as a woman, but the more I try to put myself in their shoes, I feel really alienated. As a child who asked their mother.
As I examine further, usually the husband doing less work than the wife (or worse unemployed). While expecting their wife to do the whole labour, they would gaslight and being temperamental about it. Why can't they appreciate it a bit and not feel entitled? Because muh, the gender roles.
I wish I could help her, but I'm struggling with executive dysfunction. The oldest son, have the same attitude as the husband/father figure. The daughter lived a life with her husband. Then there's me, the unhelpful 'son'.
“Why do you keep married if you're unhappy with the marriage?”
Turns out, she doesn't have the bargaining power. She doesn't have a job so she can't seperate ways and raise the children alone, and she doesn't want to burden her parents with her matter. Not to mention, unlivable wages.
I'm non-binary myself, but I aknowledged that I born as a male and the society expected me to take the privileges. I do worry that if I have a wife, would she experience the same suffering?
Feminism is frowned upon in our society, let alone Marxism, in a country that genocide communist sympathiser?
For a reference, Southeast Asia.
