I don't agree that a man or a woman's place is in the home. Men or women are not naturally better at doing things like ironing. People should be able to choose what they do with their lives.
i think the same noones place is in the home but for some reason woman prefer a tidy clean house where everything is perfect and therefore take the reasponsability to make it so.
i think a man place is not at home but nether is a women's i think that a place for a man is a place he would like to be you see some men on a building site or some in a office it does not matter where they work as long as there happy. You do see some men at home trying to keep the house looking nice for his wife and posabily children.
Does this mean all women like a clean house and all men don't? What do others think?
Thanks for the comment Steve - don't forget that the idea is to use your codename - select other from the identity options and enter your PLACE you chose.
i think that if woman should be able to do whatever they want
i think a mans place is'nt at home he shud be out workin bud !! but neither shu the women stay home either as long as ther both happy they shud do wat they want !!!!!!
i think a woman should do want she wants, women don't have to stay home doing house work, while the men are out working. i think men should help with house work, as they make most of the mess.
no i think it shold be sherd to be in the home women are as equally as importont as men so women can work 2

Some good comments guys. Don't forget to read the statement - "A MAN'S place is in the home."
Are women naturally better at looking after children and keeping houses tidy? What evidence is there for or against this?
a mans place is his choice and the same goes for women they can do as they please and sterotypes should not effecy it.
I think that men and women should be able to choose for themselves what they want to do with their lives and not have to follow a stereotype

Bonjour ^^ i think it wud be great being a house husband getting the women to work while u laze about at home while kids at school super!!
i think that yes women are more suited to the home because men are the one who should be out working ... altho i agree that there is no reason why a man cant look after the house it goes either way depending on the work it would depend on who would do it e.g a steel mill not realy a womans place as they could be seriously injurd and i dont think that anyone would like to see a woman rushed to hospital with an extream injury .. traditionaly men are the ones who deal with these things that they can be faced with danger and that a woman shouldnt as women are more important as they are the ones who look after the children they are the ones who can rais them better.
i fink dat its neither a man or a womens place its up to dem both wot they wanna do
good afternoon everybody.i think that it is up to the husband and wife or couple weather the man or wife stays at home it also depends on what qulifications the parents have because if the man has a job with low pay then it is no gud for him to be working when the mother could have a well paid job like a docter.
I think that it is up to the home owners who does what job in the house
i think its up 2 the adalts who choose wat whos going to do but women are aloud to hav eqal rights in my mind
i believe that a mans place is to work as team with his partner or wife. whether that may be by staying at home and doing housework etc or to go out and work. stereotypically a woman is placed at home to be a housewife, but there is no reason why it can't be the mens role aswell.
hi mr beech its the pygme shrew
soz that was a test to see if it works lol.
i dont agree with the statement although their are lots of men that do stay at home and look after the kids or do the house work while the wife goes to work and earns the wage infact in modern society its not an uncommen thing to happen which is something that in the early part of this century would never have been seen even up to 50 years ago a womans place was seen at home which ofcorse is wrong. we think that we live in a even society these days but do we realy? stats show that for every £1 earned by a man a woman earns about 73p which is obviosly not the same and some businesses still shy away from employing a femail sometimes because of such issues like becoming pregnant which then means that the company has to pay maternity leave and also if nesasary pay another employee to fill her place. In some businesses i think that men can sometimes feel thretend by having a female in the work place probaly because that they might feel that the woman can do her job better than what he can.
well any way thats what i think this is the pygme shrew signing out see u 2moz mr beech
NO! a mans place is not in the home but nor is a womans! if they want to then they can but no one has the right to tell them that thats where they belong!!!
i dont think a mans place is in the home but i dont think a womans place is either. Theres no proof to say that men or women belong in the home.
I don't agree that a man's place is in the home because, I think that anyone can do what they want to do, and I think that stereotyping people because of traditional values, is wrong because people should be able to do any job they want, without being looked down on.
i disagree that a mans place is in the house because most of the top jobs that are available are given to men and in the old days a womans job was always in the home antil the war.

I think men and women are equal, they should choose who does what job.
no it should be up to them what they want to do and a womens place is in the home before a mans
I think it is both the mens and womens job to look after the home because it is not fair otherwise
