Wow, I don't know, the same thing the men are getting, an equal life-partner who they have a very strong emotional attachment to? There's the legal benefits for both partners, social recognition of your relationship, legal benefits for any children, possibly the sanction of your chosen religion...

Sure, if what you want from a relationship is things, stuff, and to not have to work, more power to you... But I have no respect for you.

You are missing my point. The comment isn't about me. It's about men who have these old-fashioned expectations of women, but don't reciprocate by fulfilling the traditional role for a man.

That is, if I have to sit quietly, look pretty, and clean house, what am I getting in return? Not much these days.

Sorry, your original comment seemed to be about men in general, not the old fashioned type.
