“The all American work ethic, destructive enough by itself, also packs a gender double standard that strip-mines the natural resources of both parents. It has taught us that as their earnings and success increase, men become "more manly," while women become "less feminine." This perverse cultural dynamic gives fathers an incentive to stay away from their families and kill themselves at work, while coercing mothers to limit their career commitment, which in turn limits their wages and shortchanges their families.” MenGivingEnoughMotherTurnsFatherParentWomenNaturalCareersMinesTaughtLimitsStandardsEthicsCommitmentResourcesIncreaseGenderDestructiveFemininePacksEarningWagesWork EthicIncentivesNatural ResourcesManlyTaught UsDouble Standard Author:Letty Cottin Pogrebin
