I have seen people use this expression in a few threads recently and it baffles me because, while I understand what my grandmother meant by it (sexist and offensive to me even 30 years ago), it seems so out of context for today. What on earth does it mean for today's relationships, young, old, gay, straight?
Who is "the cow" and what, exactly, is "the milk" these days?
NO woman wants to be compared to a cow in any way, not even joking.
The cow (the woman)
The milk (sex and relationship priviledges)
For all this "new age" thinking I don't see anything but an increase in bad relationships, single parent households, and marriages that don't last. Let's not forget domestic partnerships, a.k.a., common law marriages which basically says the law recognizes you as a legal couple even if he/she won't take the steps to acknowledge this. Also included are the rise in STD's. So if old math worked better someone explain why people want to do this new math all the time? I'm just saying.

Do you really believe marriages were better for women "in the old days"?
Because if you do, you need to do a bit of reading. Marriage has never been good for women and the "old math" that you are speaking of is simply looking at the past through rose-coloured glasses.
