The perfect all-rounder is a model that no longer holds. Jacinda and the others

The skirt suits the throne. But even on a throne it wears out. In these days, weeks, months, years, it happens that many people give up their careers to fall back at home. Susan Wojcicki, CEO of YouTube, and then the premiers Jacinda Ardern and Nicola Sturgeon did it. It will be that the other side of the famous crisis of the male is the superwoman in difficulty. It may be that the man, from doing only one thing – whether it was writing or hoeing – found himself one day lost in the supermarket, doing the shopping, alone and abandoned by the career woman. And it will perhaps be that the latter is her twin, just as tired, but for opposite reasons. Strong and multifunctional girls migrate to the nest. And if doing just one thing – writing or hoeing – is against the advancing culture, knowing how to do everything – and everything very well – is against nature. If only one thing is incompatible with a world in which you find yourself hanging out the clothes from night to day, being a perfectly mother and boss stretches your nerves to the max. It’s not a thing of this life. To the point that perhaps for this reason, forced to choose between meeting and crying, some still fall back in the teporino of crying.
