"men might actually be better at handling women’s issues than women. They don’t believe in “balance.” They believe in getting what they want, even if"
What a ridiculous generalization. And calling wishing to care for your family a women's issue is absurd. I couldn't finish reading the article after that.
An anecdote about work/life balance: I was up for a promotion last year. Also, my wife wrecked her car last year. When I could have been busting my ass in the office meeting arbitrary project deadlines, I was leaving the office hours early to pick my kid up from school, helping my wife negotiate with insurance companies, driving her to the rental car place, to the repair shop, to another dealership, etc.
My project fell behind, and a couple of people complained that I wasn't returning calls fast enough. I lost the promotion. I lost it with a song in my heart, and I'd do it again in a hot second.
