“I need feminism because… I don’t want to choose between having a family or having a career”

You need feminism because you can’t make your own life decisions? Does that mean you want feminism to make your choices for you? Sounds rather backwards to me.

In the end we all have to make decisions. Our own decisions. We have to take responsibility for steering our lives the way we want them to go. We can’t keep expecting everything to fall perfectly into place without making any effort. When it comes to your future you have an ability to make a choice. Regardless of whether you are a lady or a gentleman you will need to choose between having a family, having a career, or having both or having neither.

So, without further ado, I have compiled a few options for you to choose from:
- Have a family, be a stay at home parent.
- Have a family, be a part-time worker and a part-time stay at home parent.
- Have a family and career, have your partner look after the kids.
- Have a family, have a career afterwards.
- Have a family, don’t have a partner, don’t have a career.
- Don’t have a family, have a career.
- Don’t have a family, don’t have a career.
- Have a career, then have a family.
- Have a career, have a partner, don’t have a family.
- Both partners have a career, hire Mary Poppins.
- Boarding school for your family.

Never mind feminism, I’ve got it covered for you.
