Filmbuff:This is what i have an issue with..how can this guy say this too....if his wife wanted to stay at home and make phulkas that is her choice, he can't force her to work to take the nation forward...
No - but by the same token we cannot expect our kids to strive to set high expectations for themselves and make a name for themselves - but we do don't we And I have been a SAHM mom for 2 years with 2 kids at the most difficult ages of 6 and 1-2 and a working mom for 15 with a demanding job for most time - SAHM was an absolute cakewalk compared to being a working mom - none of the responsibilities fall off your plate because you are working- feeding, clothing, teaching, mentoring everything still has to be done - only some of it is shared with the spouse 2 years of SAHM lo enta free time undedo after tending to the kids and housework - I finished reading a rackworth of fiction , painted a bunch of paintings, cooked elaborate spreads for regular parties , had time for lunch potlucks with the ladies - all these leisure activities are what fall off the plate when working - not "managing kids or homework" And I love my work so I have no complaints  The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim |

I don't have the time to go through the article or the comments. I know from my personal experience, most of my batchmates from IIM actually preferred to have a non-working wife, because of the long hours, travels and stress on our jobs. It is just easier to manage the household than compound the issues with another working wife. Leave aside the wives, many of the girls from my batch are not working anymore, most of them just do some freelancing, or stay at home or do some part time at some school or NGO. In my view stay at home moms are doing a more difficult job than working at a stupid desk and typing out code or attending calls for 10 hours a day. I was speaking to a couple of girls at office and they say that coming to work is more peaceful than staying at home, cooking, bringing up kids, managing homework, in - laws etc. In fact, speaking to a lot of women, i realise that there is an different pressure in most families and cities that is to have working women as wives because of the steep rise in cost of living and aspirations. My view on this is that - everyone should be free to make their own choices keeping in mind their family requirements, ambitions ...none should be forced to work or stopped to work...that is a purely personal decision... |

Bushu: the woman is usually working AND running the house.
I am not sure how true this is, from my experience, we both work and we both share practically everything and anything, that is the only way, otherwise couples would go mad with the stress. I see the same pretty much in all houses in my circle, in fact, I see men contributing more sometimes. :-) |

a strong logic to be used not to teach them much.
Dreamcatcher:and put it in the perspective of how important that is for future generations
oka SAHM has a lot of contribution - absolutely. but i also see many indian men carrying wrong notions about working women. primarily because when they interact with one such person, they need to treat them as an equal. the man suddenly does not have anything special about himself; and the woman is usually working AND running the house. so the man comes short. aa complex ni cover cheskodaaniki, they belittle working woman. chaala common. balupu s/o gelupu |

Dreamcatcher:Anand_n: He was very clear about what he thought- that career women contribute more
Career women have no extra contribution, as world thinks. They work hard for themselves. Home makers sacrifice a lot face a lot of insult and frustration, still they contribute way more than they expected. If their work is to be valued, just imagine how much they would earn I see lot of women look down their counterparts who are home makers , who donot have any respect for the work done at home |

the question is - why is only a mother responsible for kids? what is the father's job then? what if they both work (if they can) and share the job of rising kids? it is very clear that boys learn a lot from their dads; so isnt the mom being handicapped by being forced to teach a boy? balupu s/o gelupu |

My mother worked for 40 years. My wife is the COO at an international bank. It makes me proud. She doesn't make phulkas for me. We outsource that work to our help, and it doesn't really bother me. If my wife had spent her life in the kitchen, it would have bothered me more. Working status doesn't make a Women any great, it is your perceptive.

Yahoo:If my wife had spent her life in the kitchen, it would have bothered me more. Please choose your partner carefully. Don't just tolerate, but accept and even celebrate our successful women. They take our homes ahead and our country forward. We may have less hot phulkas, but we will have a better nation
I don't think he implied - He was very clear about what he thought- that career women contribute more Now I would like to see your counter point on why you disagree with him Because I do think an educated female population who puts their education to use in the workforce does take the nation ahead .. Whether SAHMs and their husbands are happy with their choice, whether they should have the right to choose that is a different debate altogether... His take was on the stereotypes perpetrated on career woman and he used the movie as an starting point - do you really think such stereotypes do not exist in reality - how many times have you seen statements like work chesevallaki pogaru etc. etc in this same DB ? Prime example - the statement in this DB that 90% of call centre employees are characterless and alantollu sachina paraledu..that was also today's youth not my grand ad's gen I can choose to be at home, you can choose to be at home - life would be a lot easier...but we are not. And not all of it is because of financial benefit - ask yourself why  The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim |

/qa(Anand_n,} Knee jerk reaction kademo sis, kind of expected this. Direct ga anakapoina he implied that working women are better and that a women should be a lot more than hot-pulka maker ... what does that mean...SAHM spend their entire life in kitchen? May be he doesn't value the contributions of a stay at home wife/mom as he never experienced that And as for present Indian men, they have become much more open minded compared to our dad's era, most of them really don't have an issue with their wifes' working. Frankly, there is nothing wrong if someone prefers a stay at home wife, and there are a lot of women who prefer that. As long as they are happy and secure with their choices, and have mutual respect, working/not-working is a non-issue. |

Abhysg:
One of the post I am re-posting from the same source whch would give a necessary bait ani anukunta. Mr.Bhagat, your posting made sense to me until you started giving instances about how a working woman is superior to a SAHM (stay at home mom) 1." For instance, one, a man who marries a career woman gets a partner to discuss his own career with. A working woman may be able to relate better to organizational issues than a housewife. A spouse who understands office politics and can give you good advice can be an asset." Mr. Bhagat , not every person likes to discuss their office affairs at home. Some people like to keep their office life separate from home life. Home is a place where you unwind and try to get away from it all and do something else such as - playing with kids , talking about life and world in general, for a change. There is more to life than office and its problems. And if a man choses once in a while to discuss their office problems, today's housewives are not as dumb as you think. As far as office politics is concerned , it is a universal problem in a sense because you have to deal with politics in every walk of your life (be it a school, college or even your social circle)... it has more to deal with human foibles , flaw of character and mind's complexities in a fiercely competitive world where everyone wants to beat the rest and come up at the top. Any person who is even a decently good judge of character, can take a step back and analyze a situation objectively would be able to do that ... she doesn't need to sit in an office to do that ! 2." Three, a working woman is better exposed to the world. She brings back knowledge and information that can be useful to the family. Whether it's the latest deals or the best mutual fund to invest in, or even new holiday destinations, a working woman can add to the quality of life." Today's SAHM's are more outgoing than you realise - They deal with people from all walks of life , day in and day out . From picking up groceries , paying bills , meeting up with school authorities , meeting up with doctors , helping kids with their studies , dropping and picking kids from schools , making reservation for the family, organizing social events and the list goes on .... in this age of media and net ,she also picks the best deals for her family online or from newspapers . some even do their extensive research and look for proper avenues to invest money in. How does a working woman do it better by sitting in the office, where she has to devote a large part of her day to her work? Wouldn't it be better if we just say that some women from both groups do that and some don't ? - What is the point of generalizing women in two groups ? Each has its own pros and cons , when will we learn to accept that? .( No wonder a man has written this article) 3. "Four, the children of a working woman learn to be more independent and will do better than mollycoddled children. " Mr . Bhagat, sorry to say but i expected better understanding and writing from you . The statement above is plainly biased and wrong ! I personally have numerous friends who are SAHM's and their kids are perfectly independent , disciplined , loving and caring and not "mollycoddled" as you make them out to be .Research in the US shows that children neglected at an early stage have a higher tendency towards volatile behavior.... and don't even get me started about the daycare facilities and parenting neglect of working parents in India as well as abroad. Your “mollycoddled†comment seems like your subjective opinion. You are entitled to have it, just do not expect people to accept it like a gospel. Next time, do some more research and cite some data backing it. 4."Five, working women often find some fulfillment in their jobs, apart from home. Hence, they may have better life satisfaction, and feel less dependent on the man. This in turn can lead to more harmony. Of course, all these benefits accrue if men are able to keep their massive, fragile egos aside and see women as equals" Again, perhaps you forgot to see the other side of the spectrum - It's not just about man's ego .... some working women today have massive egoes too - most fights at home are borne out of power struggles in both men as well as women. Some women I know deem it beneath them to do household chores .... and once there is disharmony about every little responsibility at home , it's nearly impossible to see harmony in the situation. The only point on which I can agree with you is perhaps the 2nd point where financial security is concerned . That is a valid point but then again that is a personal decision depending on the priority of a person. So , to sum it up, I am not at all saying that this is the case with every working woman or every SAHM, but that there are pros and cons to every situation . My point was to remind you just that. you decided to glorify the former forgetting to acknowledge the massive effort put in by thousands of SAHM's out there .... and that made your article sound mean and biased !! I don't have an issue with working women but doing petty comparisons isn't going to get you anywhere . GET REAL. As a writer of repute , we expect a better understanding of the human psyche from you . |

I wont refute that...ante I just want highlight that fathers role kuda equal ga untadhi ani....na preception...
Anand_n:I take my parental responsibility seriously - I know how I am treated, how I behave colors the gender role perception of my kids - I am not about to palm off my responsibility in how my sons see the woman's role in the family - so self goal anukunna naku problem ledu

Yahoo: the girlfriend material and the wife material.
The tantra is "Domination" Domination" "Domination". Not only between wife and a husband, the neighbours,casts religions, countrys and so on and so forth. Nenu goppa ane yedava aham, aham brahmasmi. on the contrary The marriages work because of compromise, there is a give and a take in everything, does not matter guy or girl. If wife do not like to do something she do not have to. If she likes something she can. yes it is simple to say that. but what extent? again it is a perspective, this world has people who think I dont care who wifes have sex with but I love them? is that an extreme, I would argue 99% of people say yes. Theory of moderation is the mantra, Not hurting an other living being as much as possible is the mantra. No tantras only mantras |

Thats not prejudice, its a choice. You might have one sort of woman for dating, and another for marrying. Whats wrong with that?

Onlytruth:He was completely mistaken abt MAN mindset. Now-a-days very few people do not want a working wife. Contrary to that, entire this article wrongly projects as if majority men prefers Roti Making housewife. The example cited by the writer, scenario from movie "cocktail" , is possible and may be the cause of rejection is because of HOT looking/dressing clubbing woman. In that perspective i agree majority male might NOT want them
100% agree with your post .. strong and independent women andaru clubs ki veltaaru type of generalization tho rasadu kurrod .. Chakkera_keli:manishi basic desires marchipothunnadu..... there is nothing wrong in wife playing a home maker role.....

Truelies: a guy can treats his girl like a princess irrespective of homemakers/working.
Agree A woman who expects and commands respect of her and family and kids( a queen), teaches them to treat their spouses with the same respect Working - non-working is not the issue The context here is the fact that Bhagat was himself raised by a working mother

useless!! we(Men) should celebrate women, period!! career oriented or other wise. if a man chooses a phulka making women, and if he treats her like a queen, in my view its a non issue. To all wives and mothers, I graciously bow!! the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada |

Anand_n:When a guy treats his girl like a princess, you know he has been raised by a queen :-)
I am not denying this saying, but how does this fit in the context? (with OP post) a guy can treats his girl like a princess irrespective of homemakers/working. if that is just out of context, then OK. |

He was completely mistaken abt MAN mindset. Now-a-days very few people do not want a working wife. Contrary to that, entire this article wrongly projects as if majority men prefers Roti Making housewife. The example cited by the writer, scenario from movie "cocktail" , is possible and may be the cause of rejection is because of HOT looking/dressing clubbing woman. In that perspective i agree majority male might NOT want them |

Though he is trying to touch housewife pride factor, most of the working women will do make phulkas also and will made the kitchens No_man_zones sometimes. |

Having a traditional wife who cooks: cleans and is submissive might be nice. However, choosing a capable, independent and career-oriented woman can also bring enormous benefits. For instance, one, a man who marries a career woman gets a partner to discuss his own career with.
Benefits emo kaani..intlo career discussions calculations may become one more headache if they cant respect eachother space.
working women often find some fulfillment in their jobs: apart from home. Hence, they may have better life satisfaction, and feel less dependent on the man.
Idi maatram 100% correct..they will be busy in thier wrk which entitles to give dem more satisfaction that ther r driving the force. |

Home truths on Career Wives----Girls should read, but Boys MUST read... Chetan Bhagat.. Recently, I saw the recently released movie, Cocktail. The plot revolves around a philanderer hero who has to make the tough choice between two hot women. The uber-modern movie was set in London. The characters drank, danced in nightclubs and had one-night stands with aplomb. They worked in new-age aspirational jobs like glamour photography, graphic art and software design. And yet, the guy eventually chooses the girl who cooks home food, dresses conservatively, wins his mother's approval and is happy to be the ideal Indian wife. In fact, even the rejected girl, a free-spirited, independent woman agrees to change herself. To get the guy, she is happy to cook and change her lifestyle to match that of the ideal Indian wife. While the movie was fun, such depictions disturb me a little. When successful, strong women are portrayed as finding salvation in making dal and roti for their husbands, one wonders what kind of India we are presenting to our little girls. Really, is that what a woman's life is all about — to make hot phulkas? Of course, i shouldn't be so bothered, many would say. It is a Bollywood movie. The commercial pressure to present a palatable story is real. Above all, the makers have a right to tell the narrative they want. Yet, when our most modern and forward cinema sinks into regressive territory, it is unfair to our women. It is also depressing because deep down we know such attitudes exist. Many Indian men, even the educated ones, have two distinct profiles of women — the girlfriend material and the wife material. One you party with, the other you take home. The prejudice against non-traditional women who assert themselves is strong. Let us look at another part of the world. Yahoo, a leading tech firm and a Fortune 500 company, recently hired a new woman CEO, Marissa Mayer. What's more, she was six months pregnant when she was hired, a fact she did not hide in her interviews. Marissa will take some time off after childbirth and will be back at work later. She can manage both. There is something to celebrate about that. Marissa is a role model for women and even men. I'd like Indian men to have an open mind about choosing their life partners and revise their 'ideal woman' criteria. Having a traditional wife who cooks, cleans and is submissive might be nice. However, choosing a capable, independent and career-oriented woman can also bring enormous benefits. For instance, one, a man who marries a career woman gets a partner to discuss his own career with. A working woman may be able to relate better to organizational issues than a housewife. A spouse who understands office politics and can give you good advice can be an asset. Two, a working woman diversifies the family income streams. In the era of expensive apartments and frequent lay-offs, a working spouse can help you afford a decent house and feel more secure about finances. Three, a working woman is better exposed to the world. She brings back knowledge and information that can be useful to the family. Whether it's the latest deals or the best mutual fund to invest in, or even new holiday destinations, a working woman can add to the quality of life. Four, the children of a working woman learn to be more independent and will do better than mollycoddled children. Five, working women often find some fulfillment in their jobs, apart from home. Hence, they may have better life satisfaction, and feel less dependent on the man. This in turn can lead to more harmony. Of course, all these benefits accrue if men are able to keep their massive, fragile egos aside and see women as equals. Sure, there are drawbacks also in being with working women. But the modern age that we are in, the phulka-making bride may come at a cost of missing out on other qualities. Please bear that in mind before you judge women based on their clothes, interest in the kitchen or the confidence in their voice. My mother worked for 40 years. My wife is the COO at an international bank. It makes me proud. She doesn't make phulkas for me. We outsource that work to our help, and it doesn't really bother me. If my wife had spent her life in the kitchen, it would have bothered me more. Please choose your partner carefully. Don't just tolerate, but accept and even celebrate our successful women. They take our homes ahead and our country forward. We may have less hot phulkas, but we will have a better nation. — |
