Response to Role reversal artical
This artical is no-joke. I have seen it a lot in China and have told people about it. I have partially lived it- taking more care of my own kids then my wife does who works more than I do by about 20 hours a week.
The odd thing about it- it seems to actually work quite well. I wouldn’t call it a better way of doing things- but I think what is happening is that in China where role definitions are less rigidly defined, if a man misses his kids or a woman happens to have ambitious goals or a visionary nature and is not actually nursing- “role-reversal” seems only natural. But in China there is nothing wrong with a man wearing an appron and being a master cook or cleaning etc. I saw that all the time. Interesting stuff. I’d stop short of putting on dresses and stilletto heels though…
