The revision that shows a tone that is judgmental toward women is:
"Men hold more 'hard' beats than women. Women usually choose their children over their jobs, while men show more commitment to their work with their willingness to travel and work irregular hours."
This revision implies a judgment that women prioritize their children at the expense of their careers, while contrasting this with a perceived commitment from men to their work, demonstrating a clear bias in tone.
