"It's different to talk about their right than what's the right decision."

Why do some women insist that being a homemaker isn’t real work? Why are feminists so tied to a corporate mindset that states that if work isn’t income-generating that it doesn’t matter? My mother called me Sunday night about the 60 Minutes story, “Staying At Home.”

Our favorite quote:

But isn't it their right to choose? "It's different to talk about their right than what's the right decision," says Hirshman. "As Mark Twain said, 'A man who chooses not to read is just as ignorant as a man who cannot read.'"

"These women are choosing lives in which they do not use their capacity for very complicated work," adds Hirshman.

Feminism has never been about choice, it has been about destroying families. I appreciate women like Hirshman making this explicit.
