Why do Women put their Career on the Backseat? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
According to research, many women put their own career on the backseat to enable their partner to advance. For one in every four women, the partner's career takes precedence, according to a survey. Even when women earn more, 20% prioritise their partner's career. Why is this? What can be done about it? Palki Sharma tells you.

In my younger years, I face discrimination like at work interview where a manager once said among themselves, “You want to give this high job to a woman?” And among friends, discrimination about fertility in my mid 20, that person asked me “You better have kid before your egg run out”. Women got discrimination inside and outside of home. Being a woman to me is very close to modern slavery. I make sure my child does not suffer this by selecting having boy than girl.

Honestly, I be more worried if their career was in the frontseat than backseat ! Not all women are selfish enough to compromise the state of their household and kids. They don't want to pursue their professional endeavors at stake of their innocent kids, n I find that more rational. I ain't saying they shouldn't have a career, do have it. To have your own niche, give your mind something to munch on for intellectual stimulation apart from household. But do also know in real world only having a supportive ecosystem can enable women to take up high profile jobs. Such are expectations, which do nothing but make relationship weak. Its uncertain one will get it or not. And slogans of equality sounds good only on streets, at home no one wants to miss out being in their comfort zone. Moreover, mark this, that no woman will adore a husband who sits home doing nothing- they want them to man up to earn, be strategic n achieve big. (Also, I'm not up for "generalization of the exceptions" ) Nurturing n building your kids minds into better beings + cherishing their households, keeping every corner spick n span, tracking family nutrition is unpaid because its intangible results are priceless. All I want from men (even women) is to be grateful to each other n acknowledge.....n see how happy that makes the spouses.

I think women wise up in mid 30s (or even late 20s) they realise that the glittery so called career which asks for too much for so little is not a replacement of other joys in their life. like family, friends, & personal peace. I don’t think men even have an option to deprioritise, or even quit to pursue a unique career (from middle class perspective). Contributing towards household work is a part of upbringing, and it doesn’t really have to do anything with gender

yes .. if everything is perfect for you in life like having a loving partner whose main priority is wife and kids. What if life takes over and you dont have the normal family life like everyone.

Palki women like you who have seen it and done it need to talk on this more.. we need to have discussions on how the society in India is mostly regressive.. it expects a lot from women even if they are working … the new trend I see is the super women picture who does everything work, childcare, house work.. this seems to glorify and appreciate what women do, but on many levels this is like indirect pressure on women to handle many things at once.. this pressure and expectations need to reduce.

Some people should understand that if a woman or women depriortise the career doesn't mean that women are less worthy. It means that a woman or women have potential to sacrifice, and have a strong faith. And also women have multiple options whether they can focus on career or not.

Good morning Madam. I am surprised about the increasing level of spotlight on women and their issues? Our caretakers and domestic helpers, now and in the past, women who work in the fields and homemakers, like me, are not bothered about titles, feedbacks and appreciative responses or surveys or experts' advice. We draw support from our family members, communicate our strengths and weaknesses to them, also, our highs and lows, and,each one are taught to uphold their respective responsibilities . We live as a family and yet respect each other's privacy. This repeated talking about women only justifies that we are indeed "the weaker sex". Compromise or sacrifice, a women's role in a family is not to be taken lightly because families thrive on financial and emotional stability creating a disciplined and progressive society of a nation. The chain reaction goes on, Madam.

[@KunalJethwani11]

The channel is simply playing to a woke liberal agenda. Using females in their most productive years as work resources increases gdp and that is all capitalists in the west care about. No wonder the divorce rates and empty homes with no children. High suicide rates and high depression incidents. Now they are spreading it to India and the gullible will fall for it. It all starts with complaining about natural biology that has existed since millienia but is a burden now. It moves to demanding freedom in the name of equalling spoilt males. It introduces the addiction and stress of earning money and eventually breaks down the family unit. All for gdp and making somebody richer. The capitalist.

Your interpretation of data is in correct. When you say women earn 70 cent compared to men, you are also including hyper successful men which is distorting the comparison. Nowadays it is opposite for "common" men and women, women earn more because they are working in office jobs, while men are handling field jobs for which salaries are not that great. Why can't men improve? Because education system is more suitable for women, They're good at memorizing stuff and tasks that requires less muscles activities. After education, you get an office job(white collar) which is normally pay better than field work. The current education system is a blessing for women compared to men.
