jcreality, you're asking the wrong woman to step aside. I can get just as dirty as a man can if the opportunity arises. Whether it's in a job, or under a vehicle, guns, etc.
I guess my point is, look at what men tried to do at that time, compared to now. Women were told to say home and raise the kids, while the men worked. And this is why women faught to have equal rights. You see women fighting for the same things as men are these days. Why do men die first? Because they exhaust themselves, trying to run the whole show. Sometimes it's a simple as not having the pride to ask for help.
I have a firm belief that women are the foundation, and the men are the house. If the foundation is not strong, then the house is effected. Women tend to be emotional because we stride to keep things balanced, whether it be the kids, relationship, etc. Everything has a function in life, and so do we. It just depends how determined and motivated people are.
That's my .99 cents

I agree with some of your cents/sense.....but I'll not get P.P.-ish in clarifying my views on this one
Briefly.....roles as they be, and as they've been in recent recollection......IMHO.......are quite whacked from where the "Best" place for them is to be. AS are livelihoods, pursuits, and focus. But again.....I'll just leave it at that.
But please, sweetie.....realize that I was NOT asking a woman to step aside in her beliefs or stature.....I was JOKING that I couldn't see the TV because *someone* was wanting to talk, and it's NOT EVEN A COMMERCIAL BREAK!
Ya may be able to walk like a guy, talk like a guy, or even look like a guy for all I care, but please let me still JOKE like a guy! 
I know you can allow yourself more self-laughter than that. (no one has anything they should feel need to prove to me, k?)

pep,
A man, in correctness, does not walk away. Unless of course, the challenge at hand is another lacking sense.
THAT is the reason why roles have been confused, and so much has been lost in our society. Equal rights, YES.....but let's have some TRUE leadership.
