The author is not finding fault with women working. Just pointing out that women who make their career objectives their number one priority, have their priorities mixed up.

I'm not saying all women should save their virginity until marriage but certainly sex should be reserved for honest, loving relationships. This author may not say it, but I will. Same goes for men, too.
Men need to stop looking for sex and start looking for the right woman. That's the only guarantee of sex anyway.
At least he got this part right.

Hmmm... does Makow read Free Republic? I think he goes a little overboard on dependency. He should have emphasized complementarity, instead.
To: Starmaker
Interesting read, but quiet and unassuming is not necessarily feminine, nor is an assertive, confident woman not feminine.
To: Starmaker
Sigh........where do they hide all the men like this?

Hmmm... Interesting.
I'm an enormous fan of feminity. The differences between men and women are one of the most beautiful miracles of life.
Nice article, though I'm not sure I agree with all of it.

We have pursued the busy, neurotic, overachievers who guarantee us heartbreak, divorce and broken family.Just who is "we"? Very few of my friends have wives that are even remotely like this.
I liked the movie Legally Blonde because the heroine showed that she could excel in the work world but why bother? She had a more important goal: a husband and family.
A movie with a similar tone is Baby Boom with Diane Keeton who goes from being the busy, neurotic, overachiever type to a REAL woman when she is given custody of a baby due to the death of a relative.

CANADIAN PROFESSOR CANNED FOR BEING NON-FEMINIST
WINNIPEG, May 30 (LSN.ca) - Dr. Henry Makow, PhD, 50, a former
lecturer in the English department at the University of Winnipeg, has
filed a complaint with the Manitoba Human Rights Commission alleging
discrimination on the basis of his political beliefs, and his sexual
orientation. He is heterosexual.
Dr. Makow, the inventor of the popular board game Scruples, has been
let go by the University of Winnipeg over being a "non-feminist."
University
President Constance Rooke, told him he was "anti feminist" and that
"anti feminists are anti-women." Dr. Rooke informed Dr. Makow that his
teaching services would not be retained next year. When Dr. Makow
objected, raising the issue of academic freedom, Rooke scoffed: "We let
you finish teaching the year, didn't we?"
Dr. Makow's punishment stems from complaints raised by four students
in one of his two classes. In an anonymous letter, the four students
told Dr. Makow that, "we have sensed your strong feeling that women
should be submissive and docile." The feminists at the college became
enraged because he expressed the view: "I don't believe being wives and
mothers has oppressed women. They have been selected by nature for a
task which is far more important than anything men do. It's time
society, stopped devaluing the role of wife, mother, and homemaker."
Dr. Makow believes that "a woman who puts husband and children before
herself brings love into the world. More than any other, this is the
way love is born."
The university took drastic action upon receipt of the letter despite
the fact that the complaint was not even formal. Dr. Makow informed
LifeSite that there was no investigation to determine whether the letter
had any merit. When he responded that he had been misrepresented he was
ignored, as were letters of support for his fairness submitted by other
students and Dr. Makow's submission indicating support for his position
in course materials. As well as deciding to release Dr. Makow from his
teaching responsibilities the following year, the university decided
another professor should grade the final papers and exams of the letter
writers. The university gave them permission to cut his classes and even
discussed providing these students with
tutors.
Dr. Makow told LifeSite that the action was taken since the
complaining students felt "uncomfortable," although radical feminist
professors were not disciplined at all even though they would not give a
passing grade to dissenting students. He
provided the administration with proof that he had given A's to
feminists. He lamented that the "university turns out women who hate
men." He said that the radical feminists "have turned the
university into an agency for their twisted social agenda."

Maybe the next generation will wake up to the fact that women can't 'have it all' and men need to once again see women as special, something neither sex seems to understand anymore, to their great loss.Amen, brother. And I have something else to add. Women have to start seeing themselves as special. All my friends talk about having sex with women whose names and faces they don't remember, or whom they don't want to see the next day. And they don't see anything wrong with it. Our culture is awash in the attitude that sex is as necessary as a bowel movement, and just about as romantic. Women who are putting themselves at risk of pregnancy and/or disease should be more discriminating about with whom they sleep.
A buddy of mine told me once, "One piece of ***** is just as good as another." How nihilistic is that? And a lot of my friends share similar attitudes. Incidently, he got his girlfriend pregnant soon after and ended up marrying her. This after cheating on her numerous times. My crystal ball foretells rocky times ahead for this couple.
The feminist movement and the liberal politicians, for all their talk of "sexual freedom" for women, have in fact made them sex slaves. In their drive to encourage women to enjoy sex with multiple partners in a transient manner, and remove the guilt associated with such behavior, they have actually made women see it as necessary to "put out" in order to get the attention of men they want to get to know better. There's a lot of competition out there, and who wants to be left out because they weren't competitive enough?
All this has coarsened and cheapened the covenant between men and women. I just hope it can be restored.
*whew* OK, now to climb down from the soapbox.

You picked up on that little one, eh? You're right - the fems seem to pursue the lazy, neurotic, underachievers....
To: Starmaker
Nice article. Let me ask my wife if I have an opinion on it!
To: Hugh Akston
Agreed. Proverbs 31 sets the standard for woman.
To: Starmaker
I liked the movie Legally Blonde Get help. Now.

. In an anonymous letter, the four students told Dr. Makow that, "we have sensed your strong feeling that women should be submissive and docile." I have to say that, as much as I agree with most of this article, I do get the feeling that Makow likes submissive, docile women. And that is clearly not the right message for a college professor to be sending to young women.
