One Snapshot of Women's Life

Is it possible for a woman to have a wonderful lovely [complete] family and a promising bright career?

Please answer honestly.

I don't think so.

Everywhere I see and read, also have been told, successful career women do not have a strong loving manly husband with good character and well-behaved children. Either she is a single parent, happily single or has a husband who acts as house-husband.

Has it been written by the universe that a woman should always be a household manager, or in corporate terms, a mother is the CFO of her household? And such household is a super important not-for-profit corporation that cannot be simultaneously managed with a similar corporation, moreover with a for-profit corporation?

I should also say, a married woman job is very tough. She should always be present at all time to make sure the household runs well, with great TLC. She should be a skillful talent to coach the other team members [read: children, also domestic workers]. It would be a plus point if she can produce tasty meals, at several times in a week. At the same time, a woman should always maintain age-appropriate beauty, good communication skill, and always be well-presented so that the CEO [read: husband] would not go to 'temp agency' to fulfill his desire [read: pay for s*x, one night stand, and similar actions], or in worst case, go 'shop around' to 'hire' a new CFO [which one is worse case, depends on the woman --> well, that's another subject].

I feel sorry if a woman is always domesticated as if the man is her master. She does when he allows. She makes friends with the ones he approves. In some case, a woman does not have a voice to say how many children she actually wants; have the option to control her pregnancy.

A woman can be so blessed to be with a man who respect her as a partner and a friend. A partner who helps to build each other characters to suit and fit each other along the way. A friend to share all kinds of happiness and anger.

Welcome to the month of July, it's my month. I feel so blessed for being a woman with a wonderful man in my fine life.
