I agree. I’m not saying women’s careers need to imitate those of men. I’m saying women pursuing professional and academic goals can, and has, contributed greatly to the advancement of human knowledge and understanding in recent decades. Those advancements have come at an unfortunate cost to family life and children however. The answer to those costs is to accommodate women’s familial responsibilities within their professional or academic careers rather than expecting their careers to mirror those of men, not to force them to choose one or the other.
