You seem to feel that was an adequate response to Sun Tzu's informed & articulate post. That's very sad. I was hoping this little exchange could be interesting. I guess not. it was a sexist remark No it was not. Sun Tzu has lived in the ME (so have I, incidentally) and he was letting in you on his first-hand impressions of the region (as opposed to your second-hand prejudices). It is predominantly the woman's role to take care of the kids. This is true anywhere in the world (yes, including the US) although there are exceptions where the husband takes spends more time on the kids. It is not "sexist" to refer to this.
