Militants - are they for real?

Someone on another board posted this link.

It's about Dr. Laura saying that all women should be SAHMs until the child is at least 3 years old.
Whether we're talking about working or staying at home, I can't quite wrap my head around what is going on inside the brains of people that apply the phrase "all women should".
Do you think militants are actually serious, or just trying to get a rise out of others?

"what I said was that a sahp has to plan more and differently than a wohp"
How so and why?
A SAHP can take advantage of a spousal IRA, but not other tax deferred vehicles. Also, unless the SAHP already has his or her 40 quarters in, the SAHP has to rely on the WOHP's social security payments.

Without using FMLA? No, I've never heard of that.

Ditto. :-(

University of Illinois gives 2 weeks parental leave to faculty, staff, and graduate students (with assistantships). Men and women. Adoptive parents also qualify. It's not simply to recover from birthing a baby.
Edited to add: It's not FMLA either. It's in addition to FMLA and it's paid leave.
