She cooks and cleans and sews. You farm and hunt and fish, you know, manly stuff. But what happens if say you get attacked by a sabre cat while hunting, and you lose a leg. What then? You can't hunt, fish or farm. Neither can she. She's the delicate little blossom. YOU did the animal processing after the hunt, all she does is cook. She never picked up a rake in her life. Now, what's going to happen?

It seems to me you want a woman that for whom breaking a nail is a tragedy. Do you want a clinging vine, or a beautiful rose with sharp thorns that can defend herself?

If she gets raped and you aren't home to defend her, will you kick her out? She couldn't defend herself, so she's ruined goods. Or, she's dead.

More importantly...

Do YOU fear a strong woman? This is exactly why I prefer Orsimer women. Strong, good looking (it's an acquired taste) and can survive if I should die or lose my way in Blackreach..
