Men have "worked" professionally for thousands of years. Women have entered the workforce at the same scale for maybe a few decades now. Give it time and they will be socially expected to kill themselves for the corporate good as well. Equality!

I think this is already true if they want to be recognized as a career woman right? Otherwise they’re working, but basically expected to quit at any time to bear children.

Companies (and therefore politicians) have a huge incentive to push both men and women to work as much as they can, and for smart white men they already spent lots of effort to optimize the hiring pipeline from childhood, so it makes sense to shift the focus on harder to reach demographics.
