They might not be employed for pay if it weren't for the feminist movement.
Doug ^^^^^ "They ", the Marxist/Feminists and pwoggies, I believe you mean ? Yes. Well, there might be a certain irony in this result, but I don't think feminism or their feminism or their getting into the field of "social labor" should be targetted for change back to the old ways as a solution to whatever problems there are with feminists employing nannies and housekeepers. By the way, I take Kelley's point that I don't know precisely what Erhenreich said on this. I'm getting it from the thread here. I certainly doubt Erhenreich advocates reversing the trend of women getting more into paid employment. What have the nannies and housekeepers got to say about all this ? Does it make them anti-feminism, anti-middle class feminists ? There's an interview set. Kelley probably already has the study.
