Can we drift the thread away from housework and towards politics? I just want to point out how lucky some of us are to be in democratic western nations. Many would see this as a good problem to have. Under different political and religious systems , in many countries, in 2019, women are not educated to the same level as men and don’t have the same opportunities to make choices like “ shall I train to become a pilot or not”. I am very grateful that I live in a country where we are so heavily influenced by our predominantly Christian history and our hard won democratic freedoms.....and I’m not religious. Big ups to our terrible system that is better than all the rest and thank you to my grandmothers generation for their sacrifices circa seventy years ago.
