        @sapinker Obv. Solution: Force all parents, regardless of gender, to take the same amount of parental leave/reduced time.

        @sapinker This is so true. And actually there have been voices trying to say this here in Sweden. Thank you for interesting information.

        @sapinker Oh my god. This is socially conservative pseudo-science masquerading as sociology informed by cognitive science. For shame.

        @sapinker I don't think it vindicates Susan Pinker's claims. This 'feminist paradise' interpretation is post hoc.

        @sapinker Doesn't show sex vs gender. Shows that cultural gender identity (wherever it comes from) more powerful than policy.

        @sapinker however social norms and employer pressure are strong in sweden so no "free" choice... Some quotes might be needed to lessen that
