[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It reads like a parody. Lots of women are being put in impossible positions right now. But the owner of a company who CHOSE to shut that company down and lay off others because her husband refused to do any parenting -- that's not societal oppression of women, it's just one really pathetic dude.[/quote] Yeah, I can't believe they picked this woman as the face of this issue. Why do you think they did? Is it because for once it's NOT a case of "well, she made less money so she should be the one to quit" so the gender imbalance is obvious and directly related to the pandemic rather than connected to wage gaps or something? I'm the higher earner in my household to the point that we couldn't pay our bills on just my husband's income, and sometimes it's frustrating to feel locked into my job, but sometimes I'm also relieved not to have the choice of whether to work or not.
