There is no relationship between the gestures and what an orchestra will do.

My hunch is that probably men are doing more both outside the home and inside the home

Employee fathers need to step up to the plate and put their family needs on the table.

We found that when people put this issue on the table, it turns out that men acknowledge the issue, and employers and employees can work out solutions just as working mothers do.

Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.

Its just that, when the orchestra look at me, I want them to see a completely involved person who reflects what we rehearsed, and whose function is to make it possible for them to do it.

Art has never been a popularity contest.
