[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] http://feministing.com/2015/05/07/choice-feminism-time-to-choose-another-argument/ When we valorize these women’s choices as entirely their own and inherently feminist, we stop asking why women make them and why there are large visible trends in income, occupational stratification and segmentation, and the “work/family balance” issue. Put simply, these women’s “choices” were not entirely theirs.[/quote] You're exactly what OP was talking about, and you're part of the problem. Some women have a really strong desire to be their children's main caretaker when they're babies and toddlers. It is a totally valid way to feel. If you don't share that feeling, then that's fine, but that's doesn't mean it's some cultural construction.[/quote]
