I should have just pointed out that what you were talking about was discrimination based on sex.
I figured that way was a bit more humorous and gave another widely applied situation where an employer had to spend extra money because a person who worked for them was not a 'standard' employee.

Fair enough. Really the only point I was trying to get at was that women despite being equal or better in the workplace will find challenges due to things like mat leave. While they are gone for a year, there will be people working for a year and climbing the corporate ladder.
I have worked in a job where I was brought in to replace someone on mat leave, and I also have worked in a company where numerous women have gone on mat leave, so I am basically just talking from my experience.
Having said that the only thing I want to touch on is the difference between someone leaving due to pregnancy versus something out of an individuals control like the handicap
