I am assuming that you are disagreeing with my choice and not with my comments on culture playing a part in how one views all this.

My own culture does play a part in this as well as my own personality. Don't mistake this for lack of strength or a sense of self. I have chosen that which fulfills me as a woman. I embrace femininity and I have a strong sense of pride in my actions.

Are you saying women who don't believe that a man should be head of the household are not feminine?

Femininity isn't being submissive. It does not denote a belief in a patriarchal male dominance. Nor does masculinity mean dominance or being in charge.

Sorry but there are women who thoroughly embrace their femininity and are equal partners in a marriage. I am one of them.

Certainly not. It's something that I feel enhances that for me but I am sure it's not so for everyone. I could have also said my desire to be wife and mother is wrapped into that as well.

It's just who I am and what makes me happy.

Well said, Brandy. We all must find what enhances our own lives and makes for a happy, secure marriage.
