An Interesting Read: "Myth of the Perfect Mother"

Tumescent writes "The latest Newsweek cover is The Myth of the Perfect Mother.

What does this story have to do with men? To me it highlights that in many ways, women have more choices than men. The choice to have children, the choice to work or stay at home, the choice to work part time or full time, the choice to go back to school or not. Men with children rarely have these sorts of options. Ultimately, the article highlights that women who "choose" to have it all rarely end up obtaining their unrealistic dreams. Meanwhile, the men in these women's lives are left to go to work to bring home the bacon that allow these women to eventually "find themselves". Something about the article really bothered me. Being a mother, holding a job, and being a wife is hard----but women need to stop bitching about it."
