catholics divides endlessly history jews
For most of American history, of course, the important religious divides were between denominations - not just between Protestants and Catholics and Jews but between Lutherans and Episcopalians and Southern Baptists and the other endlessly fine-tuned sects.
moderately recipients section studies
Studies show that recipients of Section 8 vouchers have tended to choose moderately poor neighborhoods that were already on the decline, not low-poverty neighborhoods.
cases earning expect fire found men neither nor protect women
Interestingly, one thing I've found that neither women nor men give up on is the idea of men as protectors. Even in cases where the woman is earning more, they'll often tell me that if there were a fire or something, they would expect the man to be the one to protect them.
There is no 'natural' order, only the way things are.
band fought happens men movement quite rights women
Women had a rights movement where they fought for changes. Men... don't band together in quite that way. It happens not in such a public-cascade way as in a house-to-house way.
motivation inspiration skills
What the economy requires now is a whole different set of skills: You need intelligence, you need an ability to sit still and focus, to communicate openly to be able to listen to people and to operate in a workplace that is much more fluid than it used to be.

kings past circles
There are always signs that a reign is ending, and they are usually spotted not in the king himself but in his court.

quilts men kitchen
If men can quilt and take over the kitchen, then women can pick up a wrench and fix a leaky pipe.
party issues tea
One way the Tea Party has benefited female candidates - and the conservative movement generally - is by consciously steering clear of social issues.
numbers doe facts
Breast-feeding does not belong in the realm of facts and hard numbers; it is much too intimate and elemental.
factories used used-to-be
Factories not what they used to be - they're all extremely high-tech.
motivation inspiration successful
The global economy is becoming a place where women are more successful than men, and these economic changes are starting to rapidly affect our culture - what our romantic comedies look like, what our marriages look like, what our dating lives look like, and our new set of superheroes.
males different routine
Every congresswoman surely endures the same strains that drive some of her male colleagues to have affairs: lots of travel, families far away, heady work that makes a domestic routine seem distant and boring. But the stakes are much higher for women, because they are still judged by a different standard.
