Whose reality are they basing 'reality' TV on anyways?

Well, I think that this show really isn't just another reality show. I think it addresses an important issue that I think will be at the forefront of our generations' public policy decisions. How do we (as a society) expect women to succeed equally in careers if they are forced to do 70-80% of the at-home work as well? Biology isn't really an excuse for the dilemma, since a relatively small portion of our lives are actually spent so pregnant or post-delivery that working is a really bad option.
I think it is a conversation that women and men need to have with eachother not only at home but in businesses. We have to make career paths that do not penalize for having a balance -- for both women and men. Otherwise, we will simply be a society of couples where one is the breadwinner and the other is at home (or has a low-priority career). Because of cultural influences, that will usually mean the woman puts her career on hold or on a backburner for a significant portion of her life.
To me, this show is anything but just another reality TV show.
