replyRight, completely unpaid, which is why most women are homeless and starving on the street.
Right, completely unpaid, which is why most women who take care of family members don’t acquire any pension and social security benefits for that work.
That’s why many of them don’t have the time for a full time paid job and either work part time or don’t have a job at all.
replyThey have a job and they are paid for it. They also do have pensions and social security benefits: through their husbands. If the husband remains alive, they continue to be paid as they were before retirement. If he dies, they often inherent his pension and assets. It's a terrible system and we need to modernize it but you're still wrong on all of your points.
replyNo, they are not paid. Their husbands get paid, they have all the pensions and social security benefits, not them.
replyMeans total dependence on their husbands. If they get a divorce they have nothing.
>If they get a divorce they have nothing.
replyAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Someone want to tell him?

replyIt's crazy how anti-feminist HN is. "But whatabout womans???" is all over this thread.
replyMind, this is coming from people who were never supportive of women and equality, and now are making snark comments about this equality which they never ever cared for. What.
But then we also can't request 50% of CEOs being women or any job with that arguments ?
Wouldn't it be more fair to be excused if you actually can prove that you're taking care of familly members regardless of man/woman ? Why would a perfectly able 20 year old woman be excuzed by default based on her sex ?
replyYou are excused from military service if you have to take care of family members, but it’s so rarely done by men compared to women that it is less work to handle the exceptions than changing the law and create more paperwork
replyYou got to admire the fantastic mental gymnastic some people are able to pull off to evade the arrows of accountability and integrity...
replyI more astound by the mental gymnastics how people can point at every single thing where women get an advantage but at the same tome ignore all the others where they are still disadvantaged
