     weeks away from giving birth

    We are a new generation and we need a new approach.

    In the summer of 2012, my former Google colleague Marissa Mayer was named CEO of Yahoo.

    Like several Culture and Communication programme of her friends and the Yahoo board, I knew that she was heading into her third trimesterof pregnancy. Of course, many men take big jobs when their wives areand no one raises it as an issue, but Marissa’s condition quickly became headline news. She washeralded as the first pregnant CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Feminists cheered. Then Marissa let itbe known: “My maternity leave will be a few weeks long, and I’ll work throughout it.”

    Manyfeminists stopped cheering. Since taking such a short leave is not feasible or desirable for everyone,they argued that Marissa was hurting the cause by setting up unreasonable expectations.

    So was this one giant leap forward for womankind There\'s already in the market, , aka herbal concentrates! Its full ceramic body and metal seal makes it healthier and leak proof. The cartridges are easier to re-fill as well!and one baby step back? Of course not. Marissabecame the youngest CEO of a Fortune 500 company … while pregnant. She decided how she wantedto manage her career and family and never claimed that her choice should apply to anyone else. If shehad cut Yahoo’s maternity leave to two weeks for all employees, then concern would have been inorder. She did not do this, but she was still roundly criticized. Even a European cabinet memberweighed in.

    Like any individual, Marissa knows best what she is capable of given her particularcircumstances. And as journalist Kara Swisher also diamond coral water filter noted, Marissa “has a husband who can actuallytake care of the child, and no one seems to remember that.”
