37. It doesn't even make sense

Simply idiotic drivel. BOTH people in a relationship need to compromise on things for it to work out. I don't even understand the idea of "sacrificing feminity", what she really means is sacrificing one's individuality and letting someone basically own you. That has not one thing to do with being feminine, whatever that is. People are individuals for God's sake. And I've yet to meet a feminist minded person who was against someone being a full time parent; either mother or father. The TRUTH of modern society is that people don't usually have that option economically.

If she wants to go back to hunter-gatherer times I guarantee she'll break a nail because women worked HARD, everyone worked hard in order for human groups to survive. It is believed that women most likely discovered farming as a way to ensure food supplies. That was a pretty important thing for the human race IMO.
