Crossbro--yes, that was directed at you. It was too harsh of an assessment of traditional Catholic women. Where do you attend Mass? Maybe that's how it's like with the smells & bells women in TLMs within conciliardom. But that has never been my experience among traditional women, not even when I was still lost in conciliardom.
Also, I think you're overly obsessed with sports and don't get the importance of births and family.
That said, I will say again that barring special circuмstances (c-section, complications, no family near to help, etc), that it's effeminate & fαɢɢօtesque for a man to take off more than a few days of maternity leave.
