"The ATTACK on Motherhood" (Fundie Article on Career Women Missing out on Moo-Hood):rolleyes2 December 11, 2011 |

God, I have found yet another site declaring religious fundamentalists' viewpoints spouting scripture as support with articles from schools being evil and teaching homosexuality among other Godless things, to this one about the evils of women working and not having famblees "of their own".:
"The ATTACK on Motherhood
....Nowadays, she says, the rule of thumb seems to be that the more successful the woman, the less likely it is she will find a husband or bear a child. For men, the reverse is true. Ms. Hewlett, an economist, conducted a survey and found that 55 percent of 35-year-old career women are childless. Between a third and half of 40-year-old professional women are childless. The number of childless women age 40 to 44 has doubled in the past 20 years. And among corporate executives who earn $100,000 or more, she says, 49 percent of the women did not have children, compared with only 10 percent of the men.
America went nutty years ago! Today, insane is a better word. Ms. Hewlett states that professional men have an "unfair advantage" over women (based upon the given statistics). Millions of working women, who focused too much on their careers, suddenly have realized that they've squandered their fertility. Now they want children and all the money in the world cannot help them. What a tragedy! Most career men at the same age have children and family. The facts speak for themselves, career women suffer when it comes to relationships and family. One can debate as to "why" this is true, but it is never the less sadly true.
It's not just America. This has become a major problem in Japan (there's actually too few children). Now the Japanese government is trying to study ways to facilitate women having children while maintaining their careers. It is getting crazier every day in this world. Now we see women actually having their eggs removed from their body and frozen into storage (so they can have the eggs implanted 20 or 25 years down the road when their career is over). It's unthinkable! If a career is more important to you than being a mother, I truly feel sorry for you. You've been duped by the greedy corporations who don't want you to have children, they ONLY want to make more money. It's just a fact that career women (what some might call "dominant" or "professional" women) are much less likely to have any children and a family.
Greedy men could care less about you, but I DO! That is why I wrote this webpage, because I want you to be happy. A woman's place is in the home, not behind a corporate desk. Is is it worth the price? Do you really need to work outside the home? Most working women choose to work a job, but do not have to. Remember: The greatest things in life are NOT things!......."
These are only a few excerpts from dozens of like minded articles on this and related links to this site regarding famblee and fundie viewpoints.

Most working women choose to work a job, but do not have to.
What planet is this imbecile living on? Has she not heard about the economy that's in the shitter and how people are losing their homes and everything they own? And she thinks women who work are doing it for "fun" or to get money to redecorate their kitchen? How about to feed their fucking family, make a car payment, or keep them from having to live in a tent?
Jesus fucking Christ. Idiots like this make these statements and people just believe them without question. We are a nation of idiots!
THIS! Almost all famblees need both parents to work out of sheer necessity, for survival! Kyds are fucking expensive as hell to raise, and our economy is most certainly in the shitter!
It's not the fucking 1950's anymore! And sometimes I do actually find it hard to believe that people who think women should just stay in the kitchen still exist...but they do, and it's fucking scary! These are the same people who want "personhood" laws passed, want to essentially ban birth control and emergency contraception, and want to ban abortion. They want to go back to the "good ole' days" which weren't actually very "good" at all!

Mistress R, you nail it out of the park. These carrrr-azies have it all wrong. They WANT the parents.
Corporations know that the guy with kids ain't going anywhere; greener pastures are not an option. They know the woman who leaves early for soccer games and recitals won't be working OT or traveling or taking on extra work load so they don't have to worry about promoting them or paying them more.
An extreme case in point is fiction: John Grisham's "The Firm." The firm wanted solid marriages, famblee men and lots of kids. You find out why later on.
That's an excellent example and very true too. I have heard company owners and executives actually make commentary to support this too like, "Now that Dobkins is married, we'll be sure to get some overtime out of him!", or, "Mildred's got kids and one is a diabetic, so there's no way she will leave since she's got the BXBS". Another time at a manager's meeting about employee raises and promotions the discussion came up about one guy who had a wife and kids and how he'd be happy with getting group health insurance coverage in place of a raise and how it'd be cheaper on the company to give him that instead. They actually did that quite often in that they'd single out the hourly employees recently turned salaried lower management and instead of a raise, they'd offer them the group health insurance if they had famblees.
