So just caught up with everyone's discussions.
Firstly being muslim and unmarried I have no vrats nor prayers for husbands/prospective husbands to make and won't have to even after marriage except the fasts for ramadan and any extra for the sake of god alone. still that does not stop muslim men from also thinking their wives are subservient to them. boys really need to be brought up with the idea that it is 50 50 to make a marriage or even a relationship survive and you are not effeminate if you do. they even forget the prophet pbuh also did it. when i was younger i hated the excuse that i can't do something because i am a girl and my brother is a boy and hence it is okay for him and not for me. i still hate that now.

i also don't like relatives but that is because mine are crazy and get into issues with each other let alone anybody else. there is like two sets of people not talking to each other and i wonder how long that will go on. i don't like guests either but that is probably because i cannot cook and am a terrible host.

aren't i going to make a great wife lol.

It does not matter to me which religion one belongs to but I too will not agree that MEN are ... God's gift to this world and women are second class citizens.

Without us women there would be no men so they can keep their superiority attitude to themselves.

If mothers have mollycoddled their sons then they expect their wives to take over that chore of looking after them.

I told my husband if I cook the meals then you do the clean up and the rest of the work is handled 50 -50.
This is a partnership not a dictatorship and he has always been fine with it.

Arya, I agree. I too hate cooking and would make a terrible host.

This lopsided percentage has to come to 50-50%

Come on, these are modern times. You have to move ahead as well as think progressively and not be stuck at an orthodox lifestyle.

it's not even an orthodox lifestyle or even an ancient thing; it is a realistic thing and also more importantly it is a considerate thing; helping each other out. ying and yang, harmony etc is achieved when people reach a certain level of respect and mutually work together for the better good which is a happy marriage but also actually a happy life!

Dolly, you're lucky. I mean not everyone gets a husband like you. My own dad does not help around the house. Its me and my mom who do the clean and everything. My mom has to tell for my brother and there will be an argument and then will my brother do his assigned chores. My grandmother (gm) she did not teach my dad anything. She was this dictatorish and always yelling around the house. My mom had a hard time before we shifted homes.

Enough of that.

In short, I was the man of the house for the time my dad was out of town for work. He used to come once in a while. And I took the responsibility of the house like doing work that boys were supposed to do. My bro was young. He couldn't do it. On top of that, my gm used to do everything for him. Which is why he yells and argues so much before doing anything.

In short, all I want to say is equality between male and female is to be ingrained from birth itself.

completely agree!

From birth each child should be cherished and treated equally to succeed and become independent, contributing members of society regardless of which chromosomes they have and if something is going to affect them because of that then that should not always be a restriction but instead they should find ways to overcome it.

i say this because i come from a very conservative Muslim family and i can sometimes see when being a boy or a girl plays an effect but i would never use that against my own children if i ever decide to have any.

^^ I am lucky but I had to do the job my M I L did not do with her son.😆

And living in Canada where there are no in-laws around and people here are not into this ...men are better attitude it is easy and everyone does what one has to do.

My nephew lived with me for a while when he was going to University and he too was spoilt by his mother and by the time he went back to his mother I had taught him how to do his own laundry and make his breakfast and lunch and clean up his mess.

His mother on his birthday sends me gift to say thank you.😆

I told her some tough love is essential in bringing up children.
