A short rant and fish

Why is it that girls are encouraged to be anything they want to be but boys are not. Why is the reasoning that boys have always been encouraged, so now they don't need to be? Why is it that this group of boys needs less encouragement?

I'm not saying that girls need less encouragement or less help, what I am saying is that people shouldn't take away the support and encouragement from boys just because they're boys and all the boys up to this point have been encouraged.

Also, why is it that feminism says that women can be anything they want to be. ANYTHING. But then say a woman shouldn't be a housewife. They shouldn't be a homemaker...well, homemaker is ok, sorta, if you really really want to. But a housewife, you must not be fulfilled or meeting your full potential or have no dreams or desires or ambition or ability to act. If I'm allowed to be anything I want to be, why can't I be a housewife without people looking at me like I'm crazy?

Did I mention our fish had babies? They're soooo cute!! And we set up the new tank and bought some new fish and frogs. 3 pot bellied mollies (one that's pregnant), 2 frogs, 1 catfish and 4 guppies. And we got a ton of plants. The tank looks great! Bert wants more plants and another catfish and some female guppies. Soon, we'll be breeding all the fish in the tank. :D

Ok, dinner's ready...bye!
