Quote of the Day
"Here is what is wrong, what has always been wrong, with equating feminist success with 'having it all': It's a misrepresentation of a revolutionary social movement. The notion that female achievement should be measured by women's ability to 'have it all' recasts a righteous struggle for greater political, economic, social, sexual and political parity as a piggy and acquisitive project."—Rebecca Traister writing in response to this Atlantic article.
