If a woman had made the same ridiculous, insulting comments about women who work outside the home as this woman is making about women who don't, there would be nothing but outrage, and rightly so. Why is it that excoriating and contemptuously snorting at stay-at-home moms is just kind of "interesting" and "provocative," when equally obnoxious rhetoric about moms with outside jobs would be immediately condemned? It seems like a horrible double standard to me. I wish all this nonsense in which women bitch at other women for the choices they've made could just stop, on both sides.
