Famous quotes containing the words living and/or standard:

“If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.”

“Society’s double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible.

—Anne Tucker (b. 1945)
