A mother does not become pregnant in order to provide employment to medical people. Giving birth is an ecstatic jubilant adventure not available to males. It is a woman's crowning creative experience of a lifetime.

John Stevenson
About This Quote

A mother does not become pregnant in order to provide employment to medical people. The world of biology, medicine, and science is very male-dominated. Women are often educated in one field of study because that is the only field of study available to them, but they are rarely encouraged to pursue their creative interests. Women are often taught that they should focus on their careers instead of pursuing their dream.

The world of biology, medicine, and science is very male-dominated. Women are often educated in one field of study because that is the only field of study available to them, but they are rarely encouraged to pursue their creative interests. Women are often taught that they should focus on their careers instead of pursuing their dream.

The key word here is "should." As women continue to push for equality in the workplace, they should be aware that what is considered "normal" today could be completely different in the future.
