...oh yes... and the feminist is... me.
I run my own company in a male industry. we are small but growing and have really large, demanding clients. i am in my mid/late thirties. i want to have children. i will have to work as much as possible. thats ok as it is my choice to be an employer & women in my family have worked for generations so i grew up with a working mother, grandmothers, aunts etc.
but my company is not large enough to have me working as much as possible, and another woman on maternity leave. very few women apply for jobs in my industry, so this is only theortical, but for the time being i would not employ a women if i thought there was any chance of them needing mat leave at the same time as me.
it is a terrible thing to say but i dont have much time left so i am prioritising me & my life over the employment equality of other women.
generally speaking as an employer, i think ML is good for business as it creates change within an organisation.
your thoughts please.
