[quote=Anonymous]Rather than throw more rocks at poor Sheryl Sandberg in the other two threads, I thought I'd start a discussion on Slaughter's book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unfinished_Business:_Women_Men_Work_Family I will caveat to say that she also reflects a certain kind of privilege, but I do think her book took to heart many of the criticisms of her Atlantic article and tries to articulate a broader cultural problem in how we value paid work that makes things over paid or unpaid care work that takes care of people. I'm not going to link to her Atlantic article, even, because her book makes fundamentally different arguments. If you haven't read the book, here are some reviews (haven't done more than skim many of them): http://www.latimes.com/books/jacketcopy/la-ca-jc-anne-marie-slaughter-20150927-story.html http://signsjournal.org/unfinished-business/ Thoughts on her arguments?[/quote]
