"It has been shown that men who admit to having children in a job interview are looked at more favorably, yet women who do the same are looked at less favorably. Why do you think this is?"
a) Societal stereotypes and biases assume that men are more committed to their careers when they have children, while women are perceived as less committed.
b) Gender norms dictate that men's roles as providers are enhanced when they mention having children, while women may face scrutiny for potential conflicts between work and family responsibilities.
c) Employers may perceive men with children as more stable and reliable, while women may be seen as distracted or less focused on their careers.
d) It reflects systemic inequalities and biases in the workplace that favor traditional gender roles and expectations regarding parenting and work-life balance.
