All thine immortal powers bring into play; Think, act, strive, reason, and look up and pray.

A few have said something like, "During dating, he was all about feminism. But now I have to ask him to help with the children, I have to ask him to do the dishes, and every time he does, it's like a favor. Where's the feminist I married?"
