MakeIt Bad parents leave their children home to be raised by a TV when the spouse has sufficient income for the family.

MakeIt Yet these same parents claim to be good people and even claim to be Christians while leaving their children at home with a TV and a Smart phone.

MakeIt They choose to work and take jobs away from men. So No sympathy. Moms should stay at home with their children. Kids are being raised by television and social media creating more kids with serious problemsNo morals no integrity and Greater Depression leading to more child suicides

MakeIt Welcome to the club.

MakeIt You wanted equality 🤷🏻‍♂️

MakeIt Hopefully people will start raising their daughters in a way that prepares them for their glorious new future. Watch that life expectancy gap shrink. I've never seen an article that explains a man's burden in relation to women's empowerment. Somebody should write one.

MakeIt It's the world in which we live now Era!!

MakeIt LoL so men have been doing it for years. Welcome to the club ladies.

MakeIt Meanwhile, men are slacking.

MakeIt This is CNBC Socialist=Dem=Liberal news, under Obama they had no hope of a job. FACT

MakeIt Now! Let the USWST ice the cake by playing USMST and demand equal pay!

MakeIt It's their own fault for taking on too much responsibility. Can't Understand Natural Thinking. ☹️

MakeIt Everyone is working longer and they are stupid. Simplify your lives don’t be stupid and bought all these electronic devices. I am a stay at home dad my wife works We do not live off the government but we do know how to simplify everything and we both have degrees

MakeIt Their pockets must also be suffering as well. Who wouldn't like to ease up on these things of they could?

MakeIt Isnt gender equality amazing 🤗

MakeIt Well...well...well..... The feminists discover that “Equality” goes both ways. Real women knew this already. The whiners get their wake-up call. Welcome to reality

MakeIt Tell them to quit buying crap they don't need!

MakeIt Equal pay is great until it's time to do equal work.

MakeIt You can have either 2 of this 3 things : family,lots of friends or career.Choose two. I personally prefer family and work :)

MakeIt It's like Jafar wishing he was a genie. You get what you wish for.

MakeIt Welcome to the party.

MakeIt Suck it ladies. Here’s your equality.

MakeIt Enjoy your equality

MakeIt Do they want that “equal” pay? That’s how you get it.

MakeIt Wait .... so you only want the equal pay part?

MakeIt Isn’t that what you wanted

MakeIt Good!

MakeIt The article says, 'the research, which is based on ongoing interview surveys by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, points to a narrowing of the gap between the time spent on the job by working men and women.' Isn't this the equality women want? Why complain now?

MakeIt Hahaha...

MakeIt This is what equality looks like. Now stop whining.

MakeIt In my world this is not new

MakeIt Oooooo now I’m in tears 😭. . .

MakeIt Fine... She loved to be a career woman but later in life, she cried out for not having a stable home 🏡. I don't get it, how will someone keeps what she doesn't love in order, anything worth doing, worth doing well I learnt. One can only achieve it when you love doing it.

MakeIt The like of life some gullible minded women longing to emulate. When Nigerian men 🚹 ask them to work for lesser hours to them, they will yell as it we ask them to commit suicide. I once asked a single woman what she love most, she gladly replied that her career.

MakeIt Want all the perks of being a man but none of the pestering ramifications.

MakeIt God this is really true for me! I work full time and am putting myself through college taking classes part time, I get maybe 4 hours of sleep a night and have no friends anymore.

MakeIt Welp, the white liberals wanted to have themselves some gender equality so...

MakeIt So? Still no were near as many women working 48 hours plus a week, in dangerous jobs. Let's get that gender work gap closed.

MakeIt 'Last year, working women spent about half-an-hour more per day on household chores, such as cooking and cleaning, compared to their male counterparts.' Men are more efficient.

MakeIt It’s OK Pocahontas will pay reparations

MakeIt Back to the grindstone wagie

MakeIt You know what? If and when they decide to bear children they'll pass on the effects from such a lifestyle.

MakeIt Welcome to a man's world.

MakeIt Yes, That's true......

MakeIt Now they know how men have lived for years!
