My husband and I talk. I am aware that doctors and bankers ask him, What do you do? I am aware that they ask me, Do you work? I am aware that yes isn’t enough, that part-time will be the next question. I don’t have a problem with part-time work or not working. I have a problem with assumptions, the ones that are made as soon as I walk into a room.
