“New” feminism commentary worth a read…
Writing in the Washington Post, professor Dorothy Sue Cobble lays out a new agenda for the new economic realities, where women are becoming the majority in the workforce and more women emerge as chief breadwinners for their families. (One thought: I lack credentials as an economist, but suggesting that the nation’s system of supply and demand somehow be altered to push up salaries in fields dominiated by women seems naive.)
Cobble has a full plate of ideas, but there’s more to be said on this, especially on male/female relationships. Women are likely to be greatly affected by the marriageable mate issue. Like it not, that has to be part of the “New Deal” feminism.
