At the end of this article, there's a discussion about how people think experienced mountaineer Alison Hargreaves, who died in August 1995 while climbing K2, was being unfair to her children by engaging in her hobby. I have yet to see such comments about the fathers who have died while mountaineering. Why is it more acceptable for fathers to engage in these kinds of risky sports than for mothers to do it?
