Feminists

You're so right about the "motherhood mystique" starting with the pregnancy competition. Of course vaginal deliveries and breastfeeding are good but they're not the best way to go for everyone. It's stupid to add that pressure. My sister had twins and her planning went out the window when she went into labor. All that mattered was delivering healthy babies.

I really wish that we weren't STILL talking about such basic work/family issues and attitudes in this century.
