Ladies Matter 15

A~ wants to know...

"I know of at least 3-4 languages in which the word for female genitalia is used as a swear word. How come no one ever uses 'penis' to tell someone off?"

and...

"Why is childcare a woman's issue alone? How come men never get asked or judged on whom they leave their kids with? Or how often they stay away from home/children?"

Meera asks...

"Why is that the "stress factor " always talked abt for working women? I understand that she has many roles to play.But what abt homemakers who have given up their career and have a lot of time?Arent they stressed? Mostly magazines and self help books cater to them and is all abt stress management and how to overcome the health problems."

Ann wonders...

"Why do I see so many families hiring young children to look after their babies? If someone wants help looking after their kids fine, but why not hire someone over the age of 18? and why is it that the people who employ these children feel that it's ok to dump them with everything? At Lifestyle the other day I saw a girl who couldn't have been more than 8 carrying her employer's baby, diaper changing bag AND all their shopping bags, while mother and father walked about eating an ice cream and talking on their phone. Ok, I know there's no real answer to this, but still I wanted to vent"
