People work a lot more than they used to. An ever/always-connected world are the new realities.
I worked from a plane on my to/from a recent work trip. I routinely work more than 50-60 hours a week, most of the extra work not at the office.
It depends on what area of the work force you're talking about
Hands on jobs-Have become less demanding over the years
Finance/education/healthcare/law- No doubt this will become more demanding fields because these are all fields that are accustomed to the essential of maintaining society.
I don't want more women on the judiciary committee.
Why? Because you're afraid there will end up being enough to vote against judges who say they won't vote to overturn Roe v. Wade and/or jeopardize the 2nd Amendment?

Yeah something like that. They wouldn't be traditional, conservative or libertarian enough or fair enough to males. What kind of woman makes it to the top of the senate but one that flaunts tradition to begin with? I want judges who read the constitution or law as it was understood when written and not constantly invent new understandings.

You mean like invent expanded powers and protections for a President so he can't be sued, indicted for crimes against the USA, and if he is..he can pardon himself federally or state???
Cause that is why Kavenaugh is there. To get Trump off the hook when the indictments come for he and his family, and, when NY State convicts him of tax fraud and State Tax fraud .
But they do know that with great power comes great responsibility? Do they know you have to sign a lot of legal work? Are you aware also about the treaties and affairs you're making with the system???
Better yet, what if the woman has an emergency situation, who's gonna take care of it???
Also, should we not have less government spending on us as a society???
I do keep wondering...do you think women are all incredibly stupid or uninformed about life in general or something? Your first paragraph certainly sounds like it with the questions about such simple concepts.
If nothing else, most women have gone through school and you learn about how government works and have that as a base. Considering some of the posts I have seen in this forum, you should also be wondering if all men know how government works if you're going to wonder that about women.

He’s right. Women on average prefer jobs that give them more flexibility and time at home. This is a fact. Why are you mad at facts?
Fact is - there are 3 women on the Senate Judiciary on the Democratic side. So . . Grassley is wrong again. He looks and sounds like a doddering old fool.

Grassley is so out of touch. Good lord. A stumbling, bumbling fool. Time for him to retire ~ likes yesterday.
Yes that must be it, all those excellent professional women lawyers just don't have enough time, its just too much work. You never disappoint, maybe you have some facts to support your opinion or you can just ask Grassley. I guess that is definitely true when it comes to the judiciary committee, too much work for those women. Only one woman appointed in 40 years by the GOP, must be too busy.
^^^^^ I almost never agree with you, but I agree with the above.
And even if dashrendar is correct re 'women on average', I don't see women who have made it to the United States Senate as 'women on average'.
Grassley suggests lack of women on Judiciary is because 'it's a lot of work,

Because Grassley put it out there in plain English:
Pubs don't want any of their women on such an important committee. They just need their gals like Susan Collins to get out there and be good girls, 'splainin why they toe the party line and do as they're told.
In this day and age, it keeps surprising me how many women still support GOP patriarchy. After all, tRump got the majority of white women to vote for him.
How's that support holding up now? Maybe Pubs think that women haven't noticed.
