pressing for better working conditions for all women seems like it might be a smarter way for us all. i suspect a lot of women also invest their retirement savings in said businesses after checking out of the corporate world.
starting your own business does sort of feel to me like the old "myth of the adequate personal solution".

and in all honesty, i am doing just that with my farm. but i expect that to yield a lot of things that money cant buy, including a community that looks out for me when i am too old to work any more.

but taking these kinds of risks IS a sign that women continue to be shit on in the good jobs.
