After you get married, what do you suppose to do? to be a housewife or get working? I preffer to get working, because I need different situation. At home, I'm still a housewife and my husband is still a leader. I must take care of my husband and my daughter but at the office I can do as a profesional. It makes me feel happy because I still can meet others people, do my job. How about you? And how about the men, are you agree if your wife or couple choose keep working after get married. Thank you for your comments :)

I prefer to be a career woman. I have aspirations, dreams and goals to accomplish. I would feel very restricted and caged if I stayed at home. Its just a personal preference, nothing against moms who pride themselves in being good housewives. When I am home then I would know to leave all that career woman mentality at work and be a wife. Be submissive towards my husband and fulfill all mother and wife duties. Its just finding the correct balance between the two that's important.

Depends on the person really. A house wife has so many jobs to take care of, and it is unappreciated most of the time because they are taken for granted, I however want to be a career professional, given my field of study, and at the same time look after such things at home which need to be taken care by me. If my husband will help me with some house work and we several things in turn, I believe we can keep the house running.

It is a personal choice. I am a stay at home mother. I wouldn't change it for the world. I do hope to have my own business someday. But, I would not give up the time I have gotten to spend with my son for anything in the whole.

I really appreciate a housewife. I always say that a housewife is a wonder woman because she does the tasks all day. She has to wake up earlier and sleep latest after everythings finish. I had already tried to stop working and stayed at home, did all the house tasks, it seemed never finish. So I know how great a housewife.

I would not like to keep a housewife, I prefer we be working out house hold jobs with her helping her where I can. She deserves her freedom and to go out, work meet her friends and have fun. You never know one day you might be down financially and her earnings help to take care of family expenses or both of you combine savings and invest in something worth.
