Anoushik Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Good point, Sev-mard. David, can you please tell me of which time period you're talking about when you say Armenian families are strong? Also, yes, Armenian families were strong - and I'm talking about the past 70 years, but the women were always miserable. Just the fact that we have men thinking like you suggests the kind of discrimination Armenian women face even today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-=VAHE=- Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 How would you know that all those woman were miserable. Is everything of yours based on assumptions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Women were miserable because first of all they had to live with their mother-in-law. Also, women were told what to wear and often where to go by their husbands. Also, I know of some educated women who got married and were forbidden to go to work. On some occasions (maybe rare) women were told even whether to speak or not. Isn't this enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Man, Dan, I realize we've been citing MBFGW quite often! Yes, that's cos there are so many similarities between both cultures and the stupidity of old-fashioned, closed-minded people, who hate "letting" others "live"....

Anoushik Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Forbidden to work? I`m dreaming of the day a woman forbids me to work!!!!!!!!! David Good, David, now we're getting somewhere. If you're in support of your wife working then surely you have to help her at home, doing dishes and laundry. Don't you agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-=VAHE=- Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Actually I know many families that live with their zocanch. So from that much your assuming that all woman were miserable? Are you generalizing? How can you know what every family was like. Maybe there was a miserable women in the family like you that controlled the husband. How can you assume such things?

THOTH Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Dave -Â We've all been over this type odf discussion before...but lets say for arguments sake that my wife was a doctor - and all i was good at was moving stones...and we had a few children at home. Now which of us should go out and work and which stay home - in your mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Please, David, don't turn this around. You know what I mean. Working - as in earning money for a living. Doing laundry and dishes is called home chores. Both men and women should help each other do home chores. Â (I think you understand me very well, it's just you've got nothing else to argue for.)

CheekY Posted December 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 This is to all Armenian women in here Girls, how many of you want your man to be like American (most) white boys, I mean smile nonstop, clean the house, make dinner, wash the dishes, do the laundry, etc... Would that turn you on? A man who is more faminante then you? how would you lets say want to have a sex with that king of a man, this thread is not about how rabiz, uneducated, smelly , tasteless some Armenian man are, this is really about how much do you want you man to be like a man, not just like a pussycat or something. maybe Armenian man just appear overcontroling in comparison to whom? i sure would love it if my husband helped me around the house!! and i don't think that makes men feminine... hehe armenian marriages are "strong" because the man is the head of the house and as i said he's overly controlling so if the woman disobeys him he'll kick her ass i know many women whose husbands treat them like sh** but they don't wanna leave them for the kids' sake and because they got no where to go... so who needs that kinda "manly" man? how would you wanna have sex with a man who would maybe hit you if you showed you enjoyed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Actually, I've got to go. I am tired of discussing the same subject with Armenian guys. Unless the upbringing of the Armenian boys changes (and I am sure it is changing now) you guys will be convinced of your stubborn believes that husbands should control their wives. I know that when I am married (to an Armenian of course, no exception) and have a son I will raise my son to be aware of the equal values that both men and women posses and that he should always respect men and women equally.
