Why are there more men than woman in masters swimming? Everyone says that women's events always end before the men's events (and thus we have to keep that odd/even rule for pools at nationals). Is this still true? The last meet I attended there were 62 heats of women and 65 of men.
Have you have such conversations?
Um, yes. I won't go into details. Fertility issues aren't unique to women who work.
The majority of women we know who have used fertility drugs are not in their 40s and are stay at home mothers.
What struck me is this seemingly pervasive attitude in suburban America that it is either career or family, not both. Being married to a wildly successful mother and professional, this attitude makes me nuts. Maybe that's not how you intended it, but it sure came across that way.
Oh yeah, swimming is good for you.
