“Anthropologists have found that around the world whatever is considered “men’s work” is almost universally given higher status than “women’s work.” If in one culture it is men who build houses and women who make baskets, then that culture will see house-building as more important.

“The peace conference must not adjourn without the establishment of some ordered system of international government, backed by power enough to give authority to its decrees. ...

—Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
