Are you annoyed when................?

Question

Are you annoyed when people automatically name jobs under the domestic domain with something feminine in the title? For example, a "team mom", "room mom", "soccer mom"? Aren't there fathers out there too that do these jobs? I know I am. The 50's are over; women aren't the only people in the house any longer.

Answer 1

My school and classroom as well as parents are "politically correct". We refer to helpers in the classroom or school as volunteers, parent/family helpers, or room parent.

Answer 11

They are stuck in the past when women stayed at home while men went to war

Answer 12

Not really I guess...it's just kind of classifying, sometimes stereotyping that type of woman. It's not saying anything about men doing it or not doing it too.
