Take 30 minutes & listen to this excellent @IWF #SheThinks podcast featuring @moveincircles. She describes a VERY RELATABLE dilemma she faced as a girl: Should she help her mom clear the dishes after dinner, or just walk away like her father/brothers? iwf.org/2023/04/21/mar…
As a girl, she was sensitive to her mother's burden in clearing up the dishes and wanted to be helpful and in solidarity. As a young feminist, she aspired to equality with her father and brothers. So, to clear the dishes or to not clear the dishes??
Listen in full for more gems like this: "And it’s abundantly clear to me that good men are not created by women. Good men are created by the example of other men." I also agree with her three recommended "solves" or solutions to our present gender confusion.

Agree. We *talk* about motherhood as if it’s the most important vocation, but we don’t prepare young women this way. I was trained for success in school and the workplace. This training didn’t help much when I suddenly became responsible for another life; that was overwhelming.
I was told as a young woman: “You can do anything,” (meaning, any dream job). I will tell my daughters: “You can do anything, but you may be called to motherhood, which will affect your career aspiration. Here are the skills you will need for motherhood.”
I think even just preparing mentally for this is important. You can’t have it all, not all at once anyway, and we should prepare our kids to choose their kids first, not the appeal of material success.
