re: #56 Fairly Sure I’m Still Obdicut

“I’m unclear how this relates, and are you making a biotruths argument that women are worse at compartmentalizing than men?”

Because for myself, and other women with whom I’ve spoken, it is very difficult to divorce oneself from personal obligations for 8 or more hrs a day and compartmentalize one’s life. Responsibility for children is still up to women, for the most part, not men. And it’s especially difficult when you’re a single mother.

So I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t try to invalidate my experiences as a single working mother. I’ve run into that before, and it stinks.

And BTW, WTF is a “biotruth” argument? The fact that I experienced life as a female, gave birth and am a mother, and was as socialized as any other human being for it, and even in fighting “role identification”, that there was still the real world I had to deal with?

I’m tired of being bullied about it, too.
