    I think the article goes into a lot of detail about the historical and more global implications of this move.

    I would expect a PM of either gender to show solidarity "to draw attention to the country’s ongoing gender pay gap and widespread gender-based and sexual violence"

    Hmm as a woman in her late 30s who casually does 5k runs every summer I really don't think you need to tie this to pregnancy or "rebounding" maybe it's related, but maybe it's not a motivation and it's just something she had on her bucket list.

    She could have had this goal even if she didn't have a kid. Maybe think of her hobbies in relation to her as a person and not as a mother.

    Have you asked your life partner about her life goals and / or bucket list?I feel like it could be helpful if you chatted with her about this and just listened (instead of trying to rationalize it alone)

    I still love the ritual of putting makeup on and looking at makeup, but I'm kind of crushed I lost some of that passion!

    My initial thought is that showing these kinds of "contributions" may lead to gatekeeping and policing of comments. New users are already intimidated to interact with the community.

    I'm happy to just have everyone on an equal playing field with no stats showing, other than on posts/comments.

    Yeah, if a potential partner isn't willing to fight for women's rights (alongside myself) I'm not interested. I'm running in the other direction.
