I never thought of the issue that way but now that I hear it I absolutely agree. I do not plan on having a child... ever so this may sound a little trollish but please bear with me here.

Anyone who is against gender discrimination (or thinks there is no discrimination against women based on gender) should be FOR free of cost and generally available quality child care for all. I think a lot of bias against women in the work force will go away if we don't have a mindset that women will quit the workforce once they have children.

I'm not sure I follow?

Sorry I'm not very good at explaining things in general but it is even worse right now because as I admit I didn't put two and two together until your grandparent comment talked about it.

If families have access to free of cost quality child care, they are now making a choice based on their preference as opposed to a decision bring made for them by environmental circumstances. This might help decrease perception of hostility.
