Do you think men and women should be 50/50 in a relaionship. in 2006?

I think that 50/50 is wrong I think it should be more like 60/40 both ways, In a relationship it is important to do more then your share men and woman. As for a hard split the world isn't like that anymore. It is not the mans job to take out the garbage and mow the lawn and it isn't just the womans job to do the cooking and cleaning, Both should want to help each other

The problem is there is no compromise. If a man wants sex everyday and I woman wants it twice a week, they need to meet in the middle. Also, both parties need to have their needs met. Men: be romantic! Leave little notes, try to woo your woman. Women: Make love to your man, ask about him often, etc.

Personally, I don't believe it will damage our society. Most of the ppl in the world are very religious and believe marriage should just be between a man and a woman. But we are human beings just like them, except we love a person of the same gender. Theirs nothing different between us except that. Everyone has their own beliefs on this issue. I just say you can't help who you fall in love with!!! Been with my gf for 2 yrs now!!! And we're still goin!!

I think it would be nice to have the old way except the old thinking that women were not good enough for working in business.  I think they should have the option, for me --I've been in both situations and I missed my kids something awful and couldn't spend enough time with them.  This is definately a problem in society today.  Too many kids without adult supervision or parents who don't know what they are doing.  The woman who gets with you and can feel free to have kids and actually care for them herself is very lucky and so are the kids.

Yes.  It is better for a woman to date a guy who is older because of the differences in maturity, but if a woman is okay with that, there is nothing wrong with it.

Techinically yeah, but that's what people are trying to change...that marriage isn't defined as between a man and a woman rather two individuals.

Yes, there should be gender roles.  It is common sense that women are better at some things than men and men are better at some things than women.  Being equal does not mean that men and women have to be identical.  Celebrating both men and women for who they are recognizes that they have different roles to fulfill in relationships.  That doesn't mean that women shouldn't ever work or that men can't help out in the kitchen.  It does mean that if you want someone to tuck you in when you are sick you want mom and if you want someone to scare the monsters away you want dad.

I know why this question is asked. It is because most people in traditional societies and even some nowadays prefer a certain difference between men and women.  They thought that women sexually mature earlier than men at the same age, and women tend to be in a better control of the family affairs than men in their 20s and 30s.  Thus a certain research of their respectively psychological and biological development can confirm this too.  Therefore in order for men to strike a balance in their relationship, they should tend to be older all things being equal.  Otherwise no one should care provided they love each other.  Dont take me wrong if I said the age should be a little different, but should not be a big gap.  Multiple factors come in as well, eg education, wealth, distance, subculture, health, and the like can off the age difference.

Its fine.\n\nIts society that has hardwired women through many centuries stating that if a woman makes the advance first she's "loose". In present times this is starting to die off. So go for it.\n\nalso, fuck society.

The USA is about 51% Female, and about 49% male. So you are right!

i'm a guy 36.  sometimes i do think it has been pushed too far.  (for a lack of a better term)  many women have bought into it and they have worked extremely hard for those equal rights that they do deserve.  the thing is that some didn't know and didnt' realize that it cost them so many other things.  i beleive that some women had to become so strong for those rights that it might of cost them a few good relationships and maybe even a family.

My answer is:yes.When the relationship start,then the couple (a man and a woman),will fix anything they need,to have a good relationship.

Males: 72 \nFemales: 79\n\nThis may be a year off, I know there is a 7 year gap. And I know it's in the 70's.

I'm married to one!  :)  \n\nHe's 10 years older than me.  Many of my friends are married to men who are 10 or 20 years older.  I'd say that between 10 to 20 year age difference isn't as much when we are more mature.  So a woman 30 years old would seriously consider a 50 year old man.  Especially if he's financially secure (not wealthy but stable) and willing to have a family---ready made (e.g., she already has children) or kids together.

I read the other day that for men it's reported to be about 21%, but research said it's really about 50%, what a difference huh?? and for women it seems kind of high lately, and more women (celebs) are going for younger men, for diff reasons.. one is medical bills are sooo much cheaper.

Men do. They are the ones that have to make all the moves. Well some women except them too. Things may have changed for the younger people. In all men have it harder.

I think in the U.S the current age is 26 for females and 27 for males ( first marriage that is)
