Hard to live up to the expectation of being a good mother and spending months on an oil rig at the same time.

- Dirlewanger 6y agoYou're being disingenuous and you know it. Most women don't take the high risk jobs. They never have, they're not evolved for it. This isn't sexist to point this out, this is just how things are. Why do people here struggle to understand concept of gender roles that have been in place (and have worked) for hundreds of thousands of years? This isn't the "patriarchy" boogeyman, this is how societies started and thrived.
