Maybe? The thing is, both ideas are problematic. And it’s more about traditionally masculine things being considered better or stronger than feminine ones and women being “better” for being “not like other girls.” I honestly cannot answer this. But misogyny seems to be a mainstay in nearly every culture… so probably not. Even if a woman is considered better for being domestic, that doesn’t mean domestic skills are considered as important or valued and it is still steeped in regressive gender roles. It’s not “women’s work” that is the problem in and of itself, it is a) considering it “women’s” work in the first place and b) considering it less “cool” or “valid” as, say, being able to change a tire.
Giving up your career is still a big red flag. A lot of women here are expected to, if not give up their career, still put family above that and also still be the primary caregiver, which is just as sexist.
I should note that women in America are still expected to take on the lion’s share of domestic work regardless of whether or not they work. And that just sucks. Maybe “not like other girls” isn’t as prevalent in the East, but 1) I can’t say for sure and 2) that doesn’t mean there aren’t a dozen other sexist attitudes to take its place. But you’re asking a gauche American. All I would really have to ask is: are such skills as valued in men as they are in women? If not… yeah, we still definitely have a problem.
Sad thing, too, because domestic skills are just… you know… being useful. We should just encourage everyone to be as useful as possible.
This is the kind of thing you do when you’re extremely desperate for attention. Her fans think this shit is cute, but she has no other way to tell people how far along she is and that makes it pathetic.
For over 75 years, Wonder Woman has stood tall as a source of inspiration to people all throughout the world.
The most recognized and beloved female superhero in history, Princess Diana of Themyscira has blazed an impressive trail from the pages of comic books to the upper echelons of popular culture. With her distinctive red, blue and gold costume and iconic Lasso of Truth, she represents the same qualities in her adventures on page and on screen—justice, peace and equality.
She is a symbol of empowerment for all. While Diana may have been raised among the Amazons, she’s far more than just a warrior. She’s ambassador for peace who champions love and compassion.
Wonder Woman reminds us that there are no restrictions on what we’re capable of—no limits to what we can accomplish, no quotas when it comes to helping others, no compromise on justice and the equality of all.
Diana embodies what it means to be a hero in these modern times. She possesses the strength and endurance to tackle any challenge, holds the unwavering belief that people can be better than they often are and uses truth as her most vital weapon.
Wonder Woman inspires all of us. That’s why this Sunday, October 21, on the day of her very first appearance in ALL STAR COMICS #8, we’re honoring Diana with a Day of Wonder. This is a day to celebrate all things Wonder Woman, from your favorite Wonder Woman comics, to the indescribable feeling you get when you watch the “No Man’s Land” sequence in the 2017 blockbuster film, to the most unforgettable line in the 1977 TV show’s theme song.
UN security dog Taz is pictured here in the General Assembly Hall.
Taz and all of his four-legged colleagues of the United Nations specialized K-9 Unit, are doing a great job checking vehicles, meeting rooms, packages and anything else needed. K-9 Unit dogs are highly trained by UN security officers for the detection of explosives and firearms.
Thanks to our furry colleagues and their handlers for all they do to keep us safe!
I’m interested in this but also cynical and think more than likely they’ll have him be overly dramatic, exaggeratedly grumpy, and “whiny.” Because he’s everyone’s favorite royal punching bag.
Also, WTF HE DOESN’T EVEN WEAR PAJAMAS.
Not actually a Pixar movie though.
All together Kate spent $36,782 (USD), 31,899 (EURO), 51,660 (AUS) for the 2014 Australian tour. Let’s take a look a the spare family.
Day 5: casual outfit alone is a few thousand, add the two designer dresses, hat, shoes, bag but don’t forget the earrings: at full price, we’re already at what £40k?
Her earrings today are C$22,000 full price (now 50% sale)
She thought she had the stamina. Uh….NO you dont sweetheart. She has freakishly thin legs and no muscle definition, so carrying a child will drain you faster than a normal 5’4 woman. She also doesn’t come off as the healthiest person despite what she said on her blog. I’m willing to bet her body has been telling her to slow the hell down since before the wedding, but she thinks she superwoman and has to prove people wrong. You cant do that crap when it involves another human being.
Oh, you can do that crap. It just catches up with you in different ways.
Never messed with me, I never messed with him. In different games. I always have respect so why did he hit me now? You know I know why. Thinks ya setting yo sights on somethin’ high, you gettin’ sloppy.
There is a reason royals don’t show PDA (along with them being old school and private about there lives) it draws attention away from the work. Every headline on this tour is about them touching each other or lovingly looking into each other’s eyes. What is a dubbo, what is there plight, what’s happening with there people. I don’t know because of BANANA BREAD. Your job is not to be cute. It’s to bring attention to things so people can help/support those issues. Your constant touching and cuddling under umbrellas is not modernizing the family or bringing them into the 21st century, it’s DISTRACTING! They need tot stop acting like teenagers in there first relationship and grow up. Your marriage is also a job it time you start doing it. Maybe if you would have stopped for 10 seconds to think about that before you got married you would have known it’s not the job you wanted. STEP UP, OR STEP OUT!
Oh, no one can bitch because the deed is done. She already showed up to the tour preggo and now they have to accommodate her. They can’t make her work and they can’t make her go to the islands. There’s a human life at stake.
It’s genius. Millions in taxpayer money and she tells everyone she’s knocked up THE DAY BEFORE SHE LEAVES FOR THE TOUR. Then she doesn’t even tell her father she’s knocked up, leaving him free to tell his sob story to the DM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TOUR.
i’d be angry on behalf of Australia, the FO, and the BRF, but fuck ‘em. They knew what these two clowns were like and they still gave them a huge wedding they could mess up, and a foreign tour they could flush down the toilet. At this point, the enablers are more to blame that the Sussexes.
Just say this is now a full blown paid for vacation for the woman who couldnt wait until after a tour to get pregnant. So she’s going, but not working. What better excuse to say you need your bff and mom on this vacation stat. Just pull out all the damn way and fly back to London and sit your damn ass down. The pheasant knows who holds his balls.

As Houseplant noted, Megs always gets worried when her dad starts talking to the press. Oh, to be a fly on the wall in Harry & Meg’s hotel room. Harry is carrying the heavy load of doing duties while Megs surfs the internet and chills away. Like, it’s the perfect resentment building activity to happen while they’re on tour.
