[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the PP you're referring to is asking why the burden of childrearing is gendered...and it's a valid question. (S)he didn't say "Don't give a damn abt your kids" but rather is asking why isn't this concern and loss of self more equitably distributed between parents. [/quote] Because the SuperMoms who "lose themselves" are in fact suffering from a mental illness that perceives infinite baby tasks which don't actually need doing. Do you seriously think that babies are designed to require 24x7 x 2 parents full attention? The human species would have been extinct 100K years ago! Add in the modern conveniences of parenting and I do not see how any reasonable person could even ask the question "why aren't men losing themselves too? " [/quote]
