> Women get pregnant; men don't. Women have to nurse children (as in breast feed), men don't. When a woman it's pregnant or nursing, she needs support.

Absolutely none of this is relevant to whether non-women or women "should" be homemakers. Women get pregnant but that doesn't mean they're in any way more suited to taking care of children than non-women.

> Because you can't raise children on your own.

Tell that to the literally millions of single parents who do a great job raising kids while millions of two parent households fail at it.



I find it hard to take seriously someone who uses phrases like "non-woman" non-ironically.

As far as I know, single parent households are largely dysfunctional and fail at producing responsible adults.


> I find it hard to take seriously someone who uses phrases like "non-woman" non-ironically.

I find it hard to take seriously someone who thinks gender binary is a thing.

Do more research then. That's absolutely false.


I was raised by a single mom. I can can tell you emphatically, a two parent household would have been better.


> non-women.

aka, men


There are many ways to be neither a woman nor a man.

There are also many ways to be born missing limbs, but that fact doesn't normalize it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_amputation


That's not relevant. Your original comment:

> aka, men

claimed that no genders or sexes other than "male" and "female" exist. But thanks for admitting you were wrong!
