Indeed, a majority of IVF treatments are for women over the age of 35. Having deliberately put off having children in order to reap the financial rewards of a career, many of these women now expect the taxpayer to subsidise their choices by paying for their IVF treatment. This is simply unacceptable from a moral point of view. Women who choose to make their own fertility difficult or impossible should not expect society to pick up the bill for their bad choices.

Ignoring that by doing so, they’ve contributed to the productivity of the economy and been paying taxes on that career right through ’til they decide to have children.

Some of you guys don’t seem to have a good grasp of logic.

Thus family life is put on hold, if not rejected altogether. The very strong maternal instinct found in women is suppressed, and the normal desire to form a family is squashed on the altar of feminist ideology. And of course a leading sacrament of this secular religion is abortion.

If – heaven forbid – a woman should fall pregnant in her pursuit of the successful career life, then there is always abortion to take care of things. Everything must be sacrificed in that corporate ladder climb – even unborn babies. And if the career in the end does not turn out to be all it was meant to be, one can always turn to IVF and the like and family life can again be put back on the agenda.

Of course these women are simply kidding themselves. Their biological clock has been ticking away all this time, and if they wait too long, even the various assisted reproductive technologies will not be able to bail them out of their predicament. Putting off childbirth is simply risky business.

Recently some Monash academics echoed these concerns and said that women are using IVF as a “Band-Aid” for so-called social infertility. By delaying child-bearing because of social pressures, these women were creating a financial burden for the community and fuelling an entire medical industry.

But the burden to the rest of society may not match the burdens they place on themselves. Having bought the lie that a career will solve all their problems and provide them complete contentment and fulfilment, they eventually realise it has all been a sham and an empty promise.

No it really does sound as if she’s your average stereotype transmog.

After all, if no people ever fit a stereotype, it wouldn’t be a stereotype in the first place, would it.

Been a few like this departed from the top of govt. departments’s lately as well.

But they have been on courses, visited a marae and have tits so they are qualified to do anything, doncha know, jesus.!!!!!!

the problem is these types fuck it up for the talented women who are out there, who are they by their thousands.

Poor employee selection. Failure to actually do indepth research into the character. Probably appointed by a committee on the advice of a phsyco symetric test.

Doesn’t find the workplace phsyco’s unfortunately.

Strange that a couple of commentators blame the problem on the fact that the CEO is a woman, when if you read the full letter, Taylor has nothing but praise for the two previous CEOs who were, you guessed it, both women.

Perhaps Keppel is just incompetent, rather than being a stereotype? Just a theory.

God save the Queen.

Tallyho.
