That's no excuse for you not knowing what you meant.and you knew what I meant.

What 'should' men focus on?

"What do you mean?" is, without a doubt, the stupidest question in the English language.thedoc wrote:I thought of that, but I like my way better, and you knew what I meant.Harbal wrote:The expression is "stock in trade", doc. Get it right next time.thedoc wrote: But that is VT's stock and trade,
Not even "Huh?" comes close.

But it is also the most common, so are you saying that most of the human race is stupid? If so, I would agree.Walker wrote:"What do you mean?" is, without a doubt, the stupidest question in the English language.thedoc wrote:I thought of that, but I like my way better, and you knew what I meant.Harbal wrote: The expression is "stock in trade", doc.

Re: Should women focus more on jobs or children?
In other words, you're asking what did I mean.
Yes, the irony. Ha ha.
You could have just cut to the chase and said, "Huh?

Yet again Harbal rides into a post, on his donkey, to tilt at windmills, contributing nothing salient to the thread.Harbal wrote:Of course you did, doc.thedoc wrote: I thought of that,

This is a philosophy forum, and you are on a thread about the role of women with regard to employment or children. If you have nothing to say on the subject, bugger off and allow people the space to discuss. Have you run out of toilet walls to write on? No friends to play with, so you'd rather make enemies? Go do it elsewhere, unless you actually have something salient to say.

What women want them to focus on?Hobbes' Choice wrote:What 'should' men focus on?
Actually it's a good question. It's not as if they have to choose between a job or being a dad, or balancing between the two. Or do they? 'House husbands' are growing in numbers and I'm constantly hearing men talk about how they are the ones to get a family meal on the table, of an evening.

For the man in family, vigilance over truth, ahimsa, cherishing and protecting the precious, calculating implications of action and inaction in light of purpose.Hobbes' Choice wrote:What 'should' men focus on?
From this focus arises the proper attitudes, occupation, home and activities.
In the end, men don’t say they wish they had spent more time away from their families (of course there are always the exceptions.)
