Unbending Gender - Why Family and Work Conflict and What To Do About It (Paperback)

This book proposes a family-friendly feminism, focusing on the work/family conflicts and pocketbook issues that dominate the everyday life of most women. It presents a new view of sex discrimination law that requires employers to stop designing good jobs around the traditional lie patterns of men. It also argues that mothers should own half of fathers' wages after, as well as before, divirce, given that fathers' wage work relies on mothres' family work.
