“All moms need confidants who are in their shoes and can relate to what they're going through. You need a night out together to be who you are, and not feel like you have to be the career woman, wife and mommy--all at once.

“My mom always said that she didn't wear a red nose and big shoes because that's the reason people are scared of clowns. My dad is a sociology teacher, so he probably figured that out with her. Those are the things that are exaggerated, that don't give off the signals of humans. You know, if you draw a picture of a circle and ask somebody to feel empathy with the circle, they won't. But if you draw literally two, three dots inside the circle, like two eyes and a nose, you immediately feel empathy.” PeopleIfsKnowsGivingFeelsHumansSaidTwoReasonBigsEyeThreeAsksTeacherMomDadEmpathyDrawsRedMy DadShoesScaredMy MomCirclesNosesSignalsSociologyClownDotsExaggeratedBig Shoes Author:Jesse Eisenberg

“I remember seeing Extreme play with [Debra] Winger and Cinderella. Gary Cherone was wearing purple velvet overalls with no shirt and saddle oxfords.Afterward, I went home and told my mom, "I need to find saddle oxfords." And she said, "Like little girls wear?" Naturally, I couldn't find them in my size, so I went to a shoemaker and had him make me a pair. I wore them for a while, but they didn't seem as cool on me, because when your foot is size 12, they sort of look like clown shoes.” NeedsLooksLittlesSaidPlayHomeSeemsRememberGirlSeeingFeetMomShoesSizeExtremesMy MomShirtsPairsClownPurpleVelvetOxfordGarySaddlesOveralls Author:Patrick Wilson

“I ask you, how would you like your mom, your wife, your daughter to spend $100,000 to go to Harvard or some state school, and go out into the workplace, and you know she's great, and men are getting paid $200 per week more than her? Would that piss you off? What if you lost your job and you stay home crippled while she goes out, and she thinks she's going to get a good job, but someone male with the same level of experience and the same level of education gets paid more than her? You're going to get pissed. Until you walk a mile in someone else's shoes, I don't want to hear it.” IfsThinkingKnowsMenWantStatesHomeSchoolJobsAsksLostWalksLevelsWifeWeekLike YouMomDaughterPaidMalesShoesMilesWhat IfWorkplaceGood JobHarvardYour MomOur DaughterCrippledYour Daughter Author:Pam Grier
