[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]“Every single investment idea .?.?. every desire to understand what is going to make this go up or go down is going to be overwhelmed by the most beautiful experience .?.?. which a man will never share, about a mode of connection between that mother and that baby,” Jones said, according to a video of his remarks The Washington Post obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. “And I’ve just seen it happen over and over.”[/quote] Sounds like pure envy. And a load of horseshit to boot. Every mother I know is someone who became a [i]hyperfocused[/i], forward-thinking, multitasking, analytic powerhouse after childbirth. If you ask me, it's the main source of misogyny and gender bias, (as exhibited in this numbskull's quote) because few, if any, men could jump up on the day of a major medical procedure and recommence running a household and its occupants while keeping the newest member alive. It requires an inhumane amount of effort, energy and focus on an average of 4 hours sleep per night (if she's lucky). She can calculate budget, manage resources, forecast trends, and stock supplies with sleep deprivation and a baby on the boob. Here in DC, she's probably doing it with several degrees. Who doesn't want that skill set in their workforce? The smart businessman figures out how to harness that talent, not whine about it.[/quote] Amen! Seen it and believe it![/quote]
