“I think men get nervous when women start counting the number of female senators, and whites become edgy when they hear the next Supreme Court seat will probably go to a Latino. This isn't always because they object to sharing the spoils, by the way; it just reminds us that the melting pot may not be working, and we haven't yet achieved the ambiguous national dream of becoming a nation of indistinguishable beige atheists.” ThinkingMenWayMayDreamNextNationsNumbersHavensObjectsBecomingFemaleCourtAtheistSupremeNervousSeatsPotSenatorsSupreme CourtSpoilCountingLatinoMeltingAmbiguousEdgyMelting Pot Author:Dahlia Lithwick
“I don't like [the pressure] that people put on me, on women, that you've failed yourself as a female because you haven't procreated.
