Scandinavians have sane laws about parental leaves : both parents get the same amount. Therefore if you hire someone in the 25-30 age range, there is a high risk of having to do without this employee, regardless of his/her gender. IIRC, the rule is 12 months to be split between the two parents, no part being smaller than 2 months.

I've been more or less asked straight out about my family situation at a job interview, and I could tell from the expressions on their faces that they didn't like my answer, and I didn't get the job. Of course it's impossible to say why, as there where a couple of other good reasons why they might have rejected me.
