I just finished a video that had a similar topic, and it’s made me kind of wonder. For example, in Japan, it’s not uncommon at all for women to be asked if they’re planning to get married and have kids in job interviews, and to then be denied said job because they said yes. Or to be outright excluded from the applicant pool just because employers assume they’ll eventually have kids, which means leaving work, sometimes never to return.
Now, obviously there’s no way in hell employers could get away with something that outright here, but it does make me wonder if they would try to do something similar, just in a more under the table fashion. Like maybe only hiring certain types of women?
For example, I feel like first time mothers who want to return to work could face serious problems. One quick social media check, and that’s all it takes for a potential employer to assume they’re probably going to have another child in the somewhat near future, and toss their application into the trash.
I also feel like it might just make things more difficult for women in the 25-35 age range in general. Those typically are the most common childbearing years, and potential employers would absolutely take note of that. Especially if they’re married, but at the moment childless.
Don’t get me wrong, I think the state of maternity leave in this country is ridiculous, but at the same time I’m also worried about the potential effects introducing mandatory extended maternity leave could have on women trying to get into workforce.

It would breed nuclear SJWs.
