Hmm, that is an interesting point. I think I might stress the exceptions because I don't believe there is a norm. I believe there can be an 'average' as in 'most' humans do this, but I don't believe things should be considered 'normal' or 'not normal'. I guess I could always argue that I think everybody is special in their own. :p But that sounds too much like a self-help book.

I probably do have a intuitive belief of what normal is, but I don't like the idea so I sort of suppress that intuition.

If I really think about it, then yeah, most women will probably start off wanting both a career and kids but they will most likely sacrifice the career to have children. This sounds quite similar to what you believe (or least my interpretation of what you believe), however I do not believe this is a good thing. I might be stressing the exceptions because I don't believe our current norm should continue to be the norm.

Or, y'know, I could be overthinking this. I think I used far too many 'in my opinion' and 'my belief' statements in my comments. Gah. This is what happens when I'm in essay-writing mode. I would never state my opinions as fact in an essay. Actually, I have difficulty stating anything as fact in an essay.
