Arlie Hochschild

Famous quotes containing the words arlie hochschild and/or hochschild:

    Many women cut back what had to be done at home by redefining what the house, the marriage and, sometimes, what the child needs. One woman described a fairly common pattern: “I do my half. I do half of his half, and the rest doesn’t get done.”
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    Three factors—the belief that child care is female work, the failure of ex-husbands to support their children, and higher male wages at work—have taken the economic rug from under that half of married women who divorce.
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
