Nitpicking but I hate how "career" is always used when talking about women's choices, when it's just a damn job. Most women work because they have to. It's not a "career".

Most men too. One thing that is missing in these conversations is men's role in child care. The two big steps we need to take are equal parenting and family friendly working hours.

As a single dad in the UK its obvious to me that a lot of people still do not expect men to be raising kids or for a man to be the primary parent (which I was even before I divorced).

It's possible that more people who have "careers" than "jobs" would keep working if they didn't have to, but my guess is, not by much.
