In Sweden, Men Can Have It All
"In this land of Viking lore, men are at the heart of the gender-equality debate. The ponytailed center-right finance minister calls himself a feminist, ads for cleaning products rarely feature women as homemakers, and preschools vet books for gender stereotypes in animal characters. For nearly four decades, governments of all political hues have legislated to give women equal rights at work — and men equal rights at home."

Don't worry modemnomad, I did this yesterday. Soon this front page post will disappear and so too the guilt and shame that comes with a double post.

infini, you must have a heart as big as a blue whale. So many double-posts, so much raw emotion, how do you handle it all?
