I'm sorry but why are you so sure they're trying to avoid work? From my experience most women would love to have careers and be financially independent and successful. But babies indeed make it a lot harder -- both from a time/energy perspective and from a discrimination perspective.

I'm too lazy to look for literature (sorry), but I remember studying it, and later read some paper about it.

Anyway, whatever is the reason, they do take the tradeoff.
