Women now have it easier than men but still 'whinge' about inequality, Ann Widdecombe has said.

The former Tory MP, 70, said that while feminists in the 1970s called for equal pay, nowadays women make 'pathetic whines for special privileges'.

Writing in Radio Times, she said: 'Women have never had it so good. We have a woman Prime Minister (again) and a woman in charge of the Metropolitan Police; and we have women chief executives, women judges, women running media.

'Here a woman, there a woman – but everywhere a bleat, bleat. It's the age of the whine and the whinge, of the moan and the groan. And, oh, do the women know how to milk that for all it's worth, while the men, poor wimps, stand by and meekly watch.'

In everyday life women have it harder than men. After working 43 hours in 4 days, I cut grass, trimmed trees, washed 2 cars, and scraped paint off an outbuilding to get it ready to paint. I do as much around the house as I can because I make less than most men and On a budget. On top of that I have a child I'm raising which requires me to do laundry, grocery shopping, taxi, etc. I also went to see my grandson in the parade and to his football game. My 3 days off lol.

oh, boo hoo
now you're complaining because you have worked like men have been expected to forever?

When were men ever expected to work like that? They might work and cut grass (expected) but none of the rest. Women have been taking on both roles for decades. Men's work loads keep getting smaller. They work, eat at fast food, pay to have their grass cut and car washed (if they have those things lol).

Oh, and elves and gremlins come do all of my housework? Aside from the grandkids that I don't have, my days sound like yours. None of my dogs have learned to push the vacuum cleaner. And I cook for myself, because going out to eat is too expensive.

i don't know where you get your ideas , but you might want to expand your horizons to include reality.

Men, you are Corn

Time to saccharata up

Who was it that said something about all the fuss made over Fred Astaire, even though Ginger had to do everything he did backwards and in heels?

yeah, that pretty much sums up what I feel about how silly it is to say women have it easier, if by easier, it is meant 'easier than men'
