The World's Best Country for Women

[Iglooo]

I don’t know about Sweden, but when we lived in Germany in the 1980sI was encouraged to stop working three weeks before my due day, was give six months paid maternity leave, and on top of that we received a small stipend from the government called “Muttergeld”, …

If I remember correctly, it was NOW who turned down maternity benefits in the US. It was in the 80s. Their logic was that it would make women less competitive in work place.

Here’s hoping for the next generation getting a good dose of critical thinking skills as part of their education.

I thought we already did that and that is why we are so far behind in math and science since we spend more time in critical thinking and individualism.
