Yes, but there is an implied preference by companies to have more focus on work and less on private life, which is why it's also an implied penalty for the inverse (= having kids as a woman).
And the unfairness here is that only women are physically capable of putting children on the earth, so the penalty is applied to only women, even though both men and women are parents.
- hn_throwaway_99 8y ago> so the penalty is applied to only women I don't think the data necessarily shows that. I would hypothesize that the penalty is applied to the person in the relationship who most switches focus to raising their children, which is currently most often the woman. > And the unfairness here is that only women are physically capable of putting children on the earth Well, yes, that is unfair, but blame God (or evolution) then?
