Why am I so annoyed that the school has put 'Mum's networking evening' and 'Dad's networking evening' on the spring calendar? Does it matter or am I being picky?

This is a school where only about 10% of the mums work by the way (me included)..

It raises my hackles but I can sort of see the point. Presumably to help those of parents/carers of matching sex get to meet & get to know each other for mutual support and friendship. If the evenings are designed around, say, needlework and football respectively, I may feel I have more right to get annoyed.

I think I'd need more information before I decided whether I was outraged or not!
