Quote from today's Observer. What do you think?

The glass ceiling does not exist. You find a good woman in business and she'll often be better than a man ? the problem is finding them. I can't get any women on my board because women generally put their partner and children first.

Just based on that quotation, I'm with trekkie. The writer is either very stupid, because they are discounting the reasons why women might 'put their partner and children first', or they are well aware of those reasons but are being dishonest for the sake of it.

What's the quotation from?
