Chivalry and Feminism - trying to have it both ways.

I've heard this term for as long as I can recall - women like to 'have it all' - what does that mean?

Here's what I've learned -

  • being able to earn money at the same level as men (not necessarily doing the same amount of work) 
  • be able to be considered the breadwinner in a family, control and run the household, expect the toilet seat to be down at all times, but still expect a man to hold a door open for them, as well as pay for the restaurant bill.
Note the hypocrisy of women who've slept with many guys (insisting they are not sluts), but withhold sex from a guy if he's not attractive or accomplished. Isn't that treating sex as a weapon?
What fucking idiocy.
The reality is, women cannot have it all. No one can. This life is a set of choices, and they simultaneously creates more choices (along with decisions, actions and yes, consequences), as well as limit other choices as well.

I've said it before - motherhood is the ultimate bane of feminism. Choosing to reproduce will always force a woman into making choices and compromises. It should be (if it isn't already) that no human is a deity. We are not omnipotent; our lives are dictated by our choices.
