allow is not enough, it would have to be required. otherwise couples are still under pressure to let men work and let women take the leave.

Why is noramlizing a population statistic, like average pay, more important to you than motherhood?

I've never met a mother who wanted to be in work full time. What exactly do zoom meetings, email threads, and spreadsheets get you in life?

I'm not one to say "captialism has gone too far", but perhaps in this case at least, isnt it mad to force average labour hours to be the same across sexes "just because" ?
