Ultimately, Hirshman is too radical (when she suggests women "don't study art" in order to become employable; only have one child; and marry either younger or older men so that both parents' careers aren't at the same developmental stages at the same time.) However, her overall point is interesting and valid and very much worth considering. For a more comprehensive and better-reasoned book on this topic, read "The Feminine Mistake: Are We Giving Up Too Much?" by Leslie Bennetts geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Read Linda Hirshman's posts on the Penguin Blog. Does changing a toddler 's diapers count as a fulfilling job? Is the glass ceiling that keeps women from advancing in their careers actually located in the home? In Get to Work, a book that instantly ignited a firestorm of debate, Hirshman cogently argues that "opting out" of the workplace is a form of self-betrayal. Combining a hard-hitting critique of traditional feminism with practical advice to help stay-at-home moms find satisfying, well-paying work, this book will be as era-defining as The Feminine Mystique.
