Doug, 2007:

"More women working ...also means that the number of paid work hours in the society has risen dramatically, with little assistance for child or elder care (two things that are on my male mind right now, too). Household incomes are flat, average hourly earnings are down, yet productivity is massively up. There's something seriously wrong with that."

Doug, 1997

'It's unfortunate that such material progress for women ... has come amidst a general stagnation of incomes, and a sharp and steady erosion of white men's paychecks ... But anyone who uses these figures to promote a Limbaughesque agenda of white guy ressentiment will find himself under an LBO fatwa.'
