Arlie Hochschild

Famous quotes containing the words arlie hochschild and/or hochschild:

    “Many women cut back what had to be done at home by redefining what the house, the marriage and, sometimes, what the child needs. One woman described a fairly common pattern: “I do my half. I do half of his half, and the rest doesn’t get done.””
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    “Most women without children spend much more time than men on housework; with children, they devote more time to both housework and child care. Just as there is a wage gap between men and women in the workplace, there is a “leisure gap” between them at home. Most women work one shift at the office or factory and a “second shift” at home.”
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
