Sorry, The One Who, I was only hoping to promote a discussion! But what can I conclude from all this? That western women (who are undoubtedly spoilt when in comparison to their equivalents elsewhere) have choices that are not actually available to most women in the world.
Of course I wouldn't expect a women who had just borne my child to just drop it and leave it for me to nurture. I'd have instead wanted to go out to do the H/G bit in order to support her, as was my duty. Can you really imagine any sort of sensitive male not wanting to clasp his new-born against his chest. She would then have done at least the initial nurturing while I made my way back with the kill - and then to help.
What depths does this thread - not started by me - delve into our genders? I'm only a man but clear enough in my role. It does seem that a lot of you girls out there are confused a bit, to say the least ...
