[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sometimes think I would have liked to see women getting into the workforce without “The Pill” and reproductive control and this assumption that having children is some kind of recreational activity that you chose to engage in. Like what would it look like to have married men and women in the workforce with the assumption that they would have children? [/quote] Women wouldn’t get anywhere. That was the pre-feminism model - when a woman of a certain class got married, she was expected to quit - teachers, secretaries, etc. because it was assumed they would get pregnant and not be able to work. A PP pointed out the difference between European feminism and US feminism- that’s what you’re looking for - where there is the assumption that women will have kids, and it might “slow” their career development for a few years, but that’s a small percentage of their overall career so it makes sense to support caregivers.
