While I do have to admit the whole Y-chrom might give me a somewhat twisted 
perspective on this, but I totally agree with this.  If someone wants to be a 
stay-at-home parent (of either gender), this crazed backlash of setting their

Agreed.  Of course, being male, I have my own problems with the more radical 
feminism.  People have forgotten that the point of the whole exercise is to 
get equal, and not get even.
