CHAUVENISM or PLURALISM?
Call me MALE chauvinist pig if you will anybody. But my suspicion is that economic capitalism and religious materialism are what have placed women in the social relegation zone. Thus they have been transformed into partial bread winners. But role switching was never a part of Jehovah's purpose for mankind. It is therefore ironical that in this the era of "GREATEST" specialization the need for applying the principle to role definition has been completely overlooked. I suggest that what needs to be done is that in order for the male to fulfil his role as the bread winner he be (1) adequately remunerated for his labour so as to compensate for his absence from the literal garden of food production and (2) the production of shelter and clothing be removed from the list of profiteering enterprises. The alternative? Education and enforcement of the inevitable role-sharing respecting literal home management and child care. Inculcation of values and attitudes for the socialization of children is at stake and is being sacrificed on the tables of economic and political expediency.
