I don't see how I misread at all. 4x as much time off for the mother vs the father still tips the calculus to the point where it makes sense for employers to discriminate.

IMO it's premature to congratulate Sweden's supposed gender equality when the disparity is that huge -- Sweden's women still spend 400% of the time as their male counterparts on childcare. That's huge.

If someone want to put blind faith in their theory, then good luck. I personally want evidence to support my theories, where data can either prove or disprove it.

Going from 10% to 25% is significant, and 200% increase is huge by any standard. I doubt a scenario where there won't be any change in wages until its 50/50 and then by some flip of a switch all women will suddenly earn 20% more.
