Reverse Sexism Against Stay at Home Dads?
I am attaching an article as taken from Rebel Dad at www.Rebeldad.com. It is quite obvious that reverse sexism is being undertaken in Missouri. Being that stay at home dads will be discriminated against we probably won’t hear a peep. But if it was the other way around though…Hmmm… What do you think? Wingnut Declares Dads Can’t Match Moms in the Nurturer Department Before I go on an rip a Missouri lawmaker for a staggering stupid comment about fathers, let me first say that I am in favor of tax breaks and other government incentives to at-home parents.

What are your thoughts on stay at home dads if the woman really wants to work? Or even if both want/need to work? This question was posed to Pastor Mark Driscoll and his wife Grace at the end of Pastor Mark’s sermon. Check out the video: Pastor Mark is way out of line. In my experience, it is much more difficult to stay at home with a child than it is to work. In my prior career as a police officer, I observed many, many, mothers who were not fit to be one.
