[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These "women on Wall Street" club served a purpose in 1984. Now they are really not cool. Perhaps for sales and trading where women are still fairly under-represented. But otherwise they are like DEI on steroids. I am supportive of some forms of diversity but this is overkill.[/quote]

So it's all fixed now?

Nope. Far from it. But these "women on Wall Street" groups are often counter-productive. I have been to some events and half the time it is tone deaf managing directors talking about how they have a fleet of nannies to take care of their kids, and how they don't even like their kids. Truly inspiring.[/quote]

Hi JD Vance. Didn’t know you had time to post on a mommy blog. I’ve never heard working women say they don’t like their kids. As much as you want women to stay at home and raise kids, the groups that support working women are not going anywhere. 1950’s is dead in 2025   [/quote]

I heard one fairly prominent female executive say "why would anyone want to spend time on the floor playing with their kids" at a women's event. It was horrifying. And telling middle class women about having a fleet of highly paid nannies to raise your kids also isn't very helpful.

By the way, I'm guessing there are tons of Dads here so calling this a "mommy blog" is rude and disrespectful and exclusionary.[/quote]
