Yeah until men have to carry the babies there never will be true equality. Equity maybe but I'm not even sure how you offset the misery of simply having a female vessel. I mean seriously, all else aside, this body sucks. (not trans)

I mean, there will never be true equality when women don’t have to sign their bodies over to selective service or get a bunch of rights stripped away. Or when we overly commoditize the attention and speech (and just general financial, and social support) around women’s rights and empowerment when the education gap, sentencing gap, and mental health/suicide/substance abuse/homeless gap is continuing to widen with women being the “favored”, which harms men and drives them towards shit like trumpism.

The solution to your problem is ironically empowering men more, as the motherhood gap does have measurable affects on say; one’s earning ability.
