While she may have been with the company for 10 years, two+ of those may well have been effectively eliminated by maternal leave. This impacts income, when compared to a man in the same job and with the same perceived seniority.

With the advent of "parental leave" this may change, but it's going to take decades more before anything like parity is possible.

Yea...so...it's kind of like the guy not having any choice about abortion...just doesn't seem right does it ?

If she doesn't want this to happen...practice abstinence or have her tubes tied or don't feck everything with a fertile d!ck...isn't that how Chi put it to the guys ?
