Hello Heidi!
Actually, yes, this is feminism as far as most women are concerned.
It's about "choices" and "opportunities" for women which
would be similar to children's philosophy of ice cream and
candy when it suits them.

Hardly millenia. Er, ok, that would be true after all. :-)

Men have a "choice" to be a househusband as well, but the likelihood
of such women being available to support that choice is about
770 times more or about a grand 1% or so.
The question is how many "feminists" want traditional men versus
the househusbands. Which system made more "feminists" happy?
