[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the one who made the original statement and I find it hard to believe that the majority of men are taking less time consuming positions 18 months before trying to have children. I do believe the situation changes for some men after the children arrive.[/quote] And it was a completely dumb red herring of a comment. The majority of women ALSO don't take less time-consuming positions 18 months before trying to have children. It was a dumb male-bashing trope masquerading as insight.[/quote] Male-bashing? I don't think the poster was criticizing men for not daddy-tracking themselves, nor was she saying all women mommy-track themselves. She was pointing out that women are more likely to do this sort of what-if-I-have-kids-someday career planning, and that they are unnecessarily putting themselves at a disadvantage.[/quote]
