And Cap, as for the CEO and other more high powered jobs thing, that may just be because women generally tend to be less career orientated than men.
...Because most of us do go on to get pregnant and have children, and when that happens, we tend to prioritize that above all else...
I'm perplexed why you are speaking for "we" and "most of us". Watch those broad-brush strokes. Speak for yourself and your religion but you certainly don't speak for me and I daresay you don't speak for anyone else.
Right.
I said "Most of us do go on to get pregnant and have kids." That's a fact. Most women do become mothers.
I said "We tend to prioritize our children." That's also a fact. Most women are good mothers who make their kids #1. (Nothing at all to be ashamed of)
As for "men generally being more career oriented than women," just look around. There are many more stay at home wives than husbands, and high powered, demanding careers tend to be male dominated.
You may not like it, but its true. And there's nothing at all wrong with that. Women can have careers too and be amazing at whatever they do. No one is saying otherwise. But are there more men working more high demand jobs? Yes. That doesn't make us lesser than men.
Also, no one here has said a single word about religion. The above has nothing to do with it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
