Defining Sexism
Culturally, we treat sexism as if it is debatable, and we overlook or misunderstand its relationship to institutionalized power. Our cultural misunderstandings make it difficult, if not impossible, for us to embrace diversity and achieve social justice as a nation-even as we work to solve problems involving sex, gender, race, age, ability, and class. As the first in a series about sexism in the United States, Defining Sexism in the U.S. allows readers to explore the relationship between sexism, intersecting forms of discrimination (such as racism and homophobia), and power. Questions such as "Does Sexism Affect All Women Identically?", "How is Sexism Connected to Beauty?", and "Does Sexism Affect Men?" lay the groundwork for understanding how and why sexism functions within our society. This knowledge can lead to empowerment and healing-for individuals, local communities, and our nation as a whole.

The Richer Sex
A revolution is under way. Within a generation, more households will be supported by women than by men. In this book the author takes us to the frontier of this new economic order. She shows us why this flip is inevitable, what painful adjustments will have to be made along the way, and how both men and women will feel surprisingly liberated in the end. Couples today are debating who must assume the responsibility of primary earner and who gets the freedom of being the slow track partner. With more men choosing to stay home, she shows how that lifestyle has achieved a higher status, and the ways males have found to recover their masculinity. And the revolution is global: she takes us from Japan to Denmark to show how both sexes are adapting as the marriage market has turned into a giant free-for-all, with men and women at different stages of this transformation finding partners who match their expectations. This book is an analysis of the most important cultural shift since the rise of feminism: the coming era in which women will earn more than men, and how this will change work, love, and sex.
