Famous quotes containing the words ethnic and/or stereotypes:

    Motherhood is the second oldest profession in the world. It never questions age, height, religious preference, health, political affiliation, citizenship, morality, ethnic background, marital status, economic level, convenience, or previous experience.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    There is a striking dichotomy between the behavior of many women in their lives at work and in their lives as mothers.

    Ellen Lewis (20th century)
