【正文】 ll supposed to be athletic too. My brother and sister joined sports teams, but I was the kid who got picked last in gym, despite my athletic shortings. I was raised to believe that girls could do anything boys could do and that all career paths were open to me. When I arrived at college in the fall of 1987, my classmates of both genders seemed equally focused on academics. I don’t remember thinking about my future career differently from the male students. I also don’t remember any conversations about someday balancing work and children. My friends and I assumed that we would have both. Men and women peted openly and aggressively with one another in classes, activities， and job interviews. Just two generations removed from my grandmother, the playing field seemed to be level. But more than twenty years after my college graduation, the world has not evolved nearly as much as I believed it would. Almost all of my male classmates work in professional settings. Some of my female classmates work fulltime or parttime outside the home and just as many are stayathome mothers and volunteers like my mom. This mirrors the national trend. In parison to their male counterparts（ 相同能力者 ） , highly trained women are scaling back and dropping out of the workforce in high numbers. 61.
