Are there still Traditional Men?

[vincex]

meron pa naman, but then, are there still traditional women?

she who expects to be at home doing all the chores caring for the kids and satisfying the husband at night.

yun yata ang nagbago. women became more powerful as time progressed. kayo ata ang nagbago TS. i mean meron pa bang babaeng gusto tambay lang sa bahay, pa luto luto lang palinis linis lang pahatid hatid lang ng anak sa school. if i was girl, in todays time, ayaw ko ata ng ganun.

There are 2 words for that.
Dead weight.

Meron kasi akong mga kakilala na traditional family parin. It works for their family. I don't have any issues with that.

Pero hindi ko lang feel yung mga babaeng college grad naman, pero pag nag-asawa na, ayaw nang magtrabaho at inoobliga nalang ang kanilang asawa. Sayang naman napag-aralan nila. Yung iba, yun lang ang goal... I don't have anything against that as long as you put something equally important to the table (giving birth is not counted).

Agree din ako na it's ok if the family can afford the wife to be a sahm, if the husband earns enough. Pero halimbawa, may goals kayo as a family na magipon, and si mister e di naman kumikita nang malaki, the wife should help out too.

Overall, nasa mag-asawa naman yan, what works for them. In our household, we both work, not only para mas madaling mag-ipon, but for my growth as well. Decision ko din yon, kasi I'm also not a sahm type, and I want to have the freedom to buy stuffs i want.

If ever, gusto ko lang mag work sana ng 20 hours per week and at the same time be a full time wife and mom. It will give me self worth if am earning also. Ayaw ko iasa sa asawa ko yung luho ko.
I wanna surprise him also, buy him gifts from my own pocket. Nakakahiya naman kung lahat na lang galing sa kanya, di ba?

I would be very much worried about "traditional" men and women. Maybe some people here may think that it insinuates higher moral standards when in reality it simply means that the individuals involved are not open to moral re-evaluations. Non-openness will also relate to other things in life. And that will be a problem.

[F-A Soldier]

I also agree that 'traditional' =/= moral or better. It's false assumption that following (old) cultural norms makes it the 'proper way' without evaluating it's worth. We live in an ever changing world.

I think in terms of 'morality' there are unalienable time insensitive essences that must stay in effect (ie respect) but its manifestations can and will change over time.

It's like old rituals. The process itself does not hold value, therefore it may change or may not hold form over time but the 'essence' of why the rituals are conduct/the reason for their existence is still and still be held.

Traditional men are the ones who believe in maintaining traditional roles, him being the breadwinner, and his wife stays home and take care of the home and the kids. They're responsible in bringing in money, and making major decisions for the family. Meron pa ba nito?

Or wala na? Ang gusto na ba ng mga guys ngayon na mapangasawa, is someone na may trabaho and capable of working and bringing home income as well?

Conversely, meron pa bang mga babae na naghahanap na buhayin sila ng mapapangasawa nila? Or willing na rin silang maghanap buhay din and bring home some money to help out with their family's finances?

madami pa naman, pero mas maganda kung may ibang gagawin si mrs para hindi mabored sa bahay like:
-bigyan mo ng puhunan para makapag umpisa ng own business nya.
-o kaya kung may own business ka na, turuan mo magnegosyo.
-o kaya may dati ng work or mamamasukan din sya.

kasi you'll never know kung hanggang kailan lang mabubuhay hubby mo, di mo pwedeng iasa ng iasa yan, madaling maubos ang yaman kapag di mo minahal.

madami pa ring naghahanap na gustong buhayin sila ng mapapangasawa nila kasama iba pang kapatid at magulang nya

Traditional men and women may not necessarily reflect the best in people.
After all, it is the traditional role of the girl to be a "gold digger" in some gradience or another.

PARANG hindi ko yata masisikmura umuwi ng bahay sa gabi after putting in my time at work na madadatnan ko misis ko sa bahay amoy pawis at naka-duster ang suot.

SERIOUSLY, im the type kasi na hindi kailangang paghandaan ng damit, pagluto at paghainan, o kung ano-ano pang ginagawa ng tradisyonal na misis. i also hate being deferred to for simple, non-life threatening decisions that can be made on the spot. for instance, kailangan ba talagang dalawang tao ang magdecide kung anong kulay ng kurtina para sa kwarto ang ilalagay? or whether salmon or blue marlin ang ihahanda sa birthday party ng nanay nya? at that point, just shoot me.

SO true. married men pay for sex all the time. "honey, ill blow you tonight if you agree to redecorate the bathroom."

The traditional man is a chauvinist.

Are there still Traditional Men?

Yes, i know a few, - endangered species. Today, both should be helping each other when it comes to finances.


Most women today wanted to be at par with their male counterparts, most of them do not want to sit and wait all day for their husbands. Sabi pa ng nila, "bakit pa ako mag aaral or sayang naman pinag aralan ko kung magiging housewife lang ako".

[gotta lick it]

Traditional Filipino men:

Jose Rizal - pumapatol sa prosti with a MVP scoreboard as far as germany;
Juan Luna - wife beater .... este .... murder (wife and in-law);
Antonio Luna - globetrotting brat;
Apolinario Mabini - poster boy for syphilis STD;
Andres Bonifacio - had 2 wives;
Emilio Aguinaldo - bantay salakay to the max; and






Padre Damaso - hypocritical fucking clergyman!




sound familiar .... marami pang neo-traditional men dyan.

Chauvenistic cavemen who adopts the facade of a sensitive guy. Pinoy culture is still predominantly chauvenistic!

[F-A Soldier]

Chauvinist and 'sensitive guy' are false dichotomies.

Maybe blunt vs. sensitive, and chauvinist vs. progressive minded.

It's like you're automatically a Neonazi because you're loud.

You could be as quiet and delicate and still believe that a woman shouldn't have rights.

Fallacious,

The Devil is On The Delivery

Unfortunately girls prefer a chauvinist rather than a progressive.
They aren't willing to give up the luxuries of "being bought". The treats, the treatment. et al.
