Now that I'm a parent, I'm suddenly realizing what huge feminist issue student loans are.
My loans are around 130k, which means I'm HEAVILY incentivized to stay out of the workforce to keep them in deferment. I don't even know that I'd bring home an income working, between childcare costs and loan payments.
In principle this should be a both-genders problem, but of course it ends up amplifying the pressure on women to stay home.
