Q

assumptions

A

Men are naturally more suited to and more inclined to paid labor, and women are naturally more suited to and more inclined to caring labor (seems to assume that this is natural, or at least if it is socialized it is still better for society and not a problem)

Q

objections

A

Institutions that press women toward caring labor and men toward paid labor will be unfair to the men who are more suited to and inclined to caring labor and the women who are less suited and inclined to it (same problem applies to Okin the other way around)
