Law Students want to Be Mothers

Socrates advocated the equality of men and women, but "What does concern me," said Peter Salovey, the dean of Yale College, "is that so few students seem to be able to think outside the box; so few students seem to be able to imagine a life for themselves that isn't constructed along traditional gender roles."

I wonder why women are more likely to bear children? Socrates thought we could overcome this delimma, maybe he was wrong (or joking)!
