[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These "working moms" that would talk badly about SAHM's that are trying to enter the workforce are very much like the generation of men that said women don't have a place in the workplace.

[b]They are blocking their re-entry and using lame excuses such as " you chose to raise your family for a few years" so now you are OUT.  You don't belong here.  There is no place for women who take a few years off in the workplace. [/b]

So now the new spin on this is- Women, if you have babies do not intend to take more than your maternity leave off, if you do- you're out.  Women- you MUST continue to work right after maternity leave or your place is ONLY in the home. Your 'choice'.

Nice feministic view huh? :roll: [/quote]

They are doing that because they can't get the taste of bittercakes out of their mouth.

Exactly so sad.  The hostility just oozes out of their posts.[/quote]

This is idiotic. This is totally different. This is about women wanting to believe that being a feminist means you can do something no man can ever get away with and be applauded for it because it's "feminist" to do whatever you want. But then working Moms are bitter because we've been in the workforce and just....well....understand how work works.

No one every said your place is only in the home. They're saying that, if you want to get out of your home and into a job, your 10 year old experience isn't applicable unless you figure out how to brush up your skillset. Taking a few years off to raise your family is no more virtuous than taking off time to do anything else, or than working during that time. It just is what it is. And, yes, for many people it is a choice. For some people it's not a choice. But pretending it's not going to pose a problem is simply idiotic.[/quote]
