&gt;and what about the fact that those who choose not to have children (because it IS a choice, you don't just magically pop out a baby) don't get that same PTO.
 
Speaking of entitlement! I had to go back in your comment history to confirm that you are, in fact, (prior) military. 

I had an instructor tell me a sea story about a time his command kept jerking him around while he was trying to take leave. I believe his wife was having some kind of surgery and needed her husband to be around while she recovered. Something like that. Anyway, after his chit coming back for BS reasons, he confronted his Divo... 

According to my instructor, the LtJG flat out told him that "if the Navy had wanted you to have a wife, it would have been issued in your seabag." 

Obviously I took it with a grain of salt. But for the next 5 years of my enlistment I encountered a plethora of senior leadership with similar attitudes, and a handful of sailors who felt it was unfair that women have options just as getting out of deployment by pregnancy, etc.
