Hii i read your comment on my blog and i can see that San has commented here.. as for what you said - as a rational person i understand that it might cost the company more to emplpy a woman simply beacuse there is the possibility that she might be taking maternity leave.She might. Not all women do. But What French said was something on the lines of Motherhood makes women wimp out. and i find that seriously demeaning.Its stereotypical and it doesnt say anything for all our years of education and progress.if you have been receiving equal benefits since college and school, isint it grossly unfair to be meted such treatment when yuo are applying for a job? tell me, if you were a woman would you like it and think that its fair? and please dont tell me that the world is an unfair place :) that's like taking the easy way out. and things are a bit diff in the US , my own sister works there and there are things like paternity leave for men and all that. but i have to agree that yes, i do see your point of view.
Dreamcatcher: To be honest, if I were a woman - I'd expect to be treated like a person and not a gender.
Which would mean my problems, or the problems representative ofmy gender - take a backseat when weighed against a business's requirements of generating money.
College and business cannot be compared. You have no targets expected of you in college.
Being a mother is not wimping out. It's accepting one of most difficult, unappreciated - and rewarding jobs in the world.
I could spend my life in software and not feel anything. You as a mother can make people smile - and see - and feel it - the biggest reward in the world.
And yes, if you decide to take maternity leave in a country where there's no paternity leave - sure, the business isn't gonna wait for you - and it shouldn't.
I believe motherhood is the greatest responsibility in the world.
And yes, it's a sacrifice outside home. Even with equal rights, pretending anything else is crappola.
So if there's no paternity leave - then there should be no maternity leave expected. Or as an acceptable compromise, an unpaid leave of one month should be ok.
Or there should be equal paternity & maternity leave.
