>>67635795>the rewards are fairly modestAnon, they’re good enough for the people entering the field fully knowing what’s expected from them.
The “fertility” argument is dumb as fuck as well, as the same sacrifice is asked from top female professional athletes
>if you want to be a mother there is a great chance you’ll have to take a long hiatus or retire>if you want to be at the top of your form, you’ll have to refrain from being a mother That’s why this argument that what you refers as “idol culture” is inherently a problem and an unique problem to boot.
Lots of professions require sacrifice. A long haul truck driver sacrifices his family life, a professional athlete sacrifices his youth, a surgeon sacrifices his sleep schedule, a paramedic sacrifices his sanity.
All of these profession, for the top performers, being a HUGE upside if they’re OK with the sacrifice.
If they’re not, they can always be a short haul truck driver, a personal trainer or whatever else they want.
What they cannot is to receive the same reward without making the sacrifice, or to FORCE OTHER not to take the deal.
