D) A womans place in the home now as always. 在男女角色没有明显划分、家务事或多或少由双方共同承担的家庭中，男尊女卑的观点是很难维持的。双方共同承担家务和共同决策的模式造就了平等的观念，而平等的观念反过来又进一步促进了双方的共同
12、承担。在这种家庭中长大的孩子，比他们的父母更容易接受平等的观念，并做好充分准备，去融入一个合作的、而不是“性别大战”的社会中。 如果离这个进程太远，认为男人的角色不那么重要了在某些情况下已经发生了我们就和以前一样严重偏离了，只不过方向正好相反。是应该重新评价美国男人在家庭中的地位的时候了，我们对“妈妈主义”有些厌倦了，但是我们也不想把它换成“新爸爸主义”，更确切地说，我们需要认识到的是，父母在抚养孩子的过程中是一种平等的合作关系。有一些迹象表明，精神病学家、心理学家、社会工作者和有关家庭方面的心理学家，更深刻地意识到男性在家庭中的作用，他们认为在涉及家庭方面的问题上不应该由女性承担所有的赞扬或
