nope, I just want a woman.

How odd. I like quite the opposite. It drives me nuts when women are passive.

However, I am not anywhere close to normal on this. Most men are pigs, and while the US doesn't suffer anywhere near the crippling levels of macho idiocy as any part of asian or hispanic culture, it's still pretty deeply ingrained.

If you look on slowlane.com, a website for housedads, you find that acceptance among other men is one of biggest trials that housedads suffer. Other men find us threatening or demeaning to men in general or some stupid shit like that.

I really, really need to introduce you to my friend Sarah of No Livejournal's husband Aaron sometime. He's geeky and neat and takes care of their three kids (all under the age of 6) most of the time while Sarah's in school. If you see a guy working at the Willy St. co-op with a baby strapped to his back, that's him.

There is a housedads group that meets at a kid's store near Monty's Blue Plate. The store is a bit too frau frau for my tastes, but over the next several years I'm certain to be despirate for like minded souls.

An additional issue that housedads run into is that taking your kid to a traditional play group cconsisting mostly of housewives can cause them and their husbands to get all bent out of shape.

As if you can imagine how sad the pickup line would be.

"Hey baby, I see that you're taking care of your child. I too am taking care of a child. We should get together some time!"

playgroups suck anyway, seriously...but I did meet one cool person. Now I don't have to go, see? The position has been filled.

[sabonai.livejournal.com]

He works with a baby strapped to his back? At the Co-op? That's fucking awesome. I wish I could afford to do all of my shopping there because people are so friendly to me and my little monkeys.

[enzie.livejournal.com]

Sometimes. Only when his wife has to stay at school and the other kids are at school. It rocks.

Todd's in trouble if that's the case *cracks whip*

[sarahisagoddess.livejournal.com]

Well I want a subordinate woman, that's for sure....

[techdragon.livejournal.com]

me too... :) But she would have to meld well with my current 'dating group' dynamic and that can be tricky. Maybe they should do a study on that!!

[kitnish.livejournal.com]

I'm only submissive while playing. ;) But seriously, most guys I know like strong, independent women. Maybe the men I know aren't so typical though, because they also don't mind *sharing* their women.

[fencert.livejournal.com]

I have occasional fantasies about subordinate women, and playing them out can be quite the turn-on, but day to day I like someone who has their own opinions and lets me know how intelligent they are. (One of the reasons I am enamored of our cunninminx, fer sure) I've had subordinate girlfriends, and I was able to resist the temptation of using them utterly, but its actually kind of exhausting when they put up no defense- I definitely prefer someone who communicates their boundries and lets you know their needs.

[asaka.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and I could use a subordinate man too.
But we take whoever it turns out we love:)
Anyway, I for some reason cannot view anything from Channel3000 while at work (supressing the NEWS! supressing the NEWS!) but I'm guessing the headline says it all.
Yes, in my humble experience, I believe it's true most men want subordinate women. I guess that's why I never dated much:)

i have too many thoughts about this article and study, and I tried to get them out, but then my brain broke.
