  17. Why Feminism Matters Today “It's important to remember that feminism is no longer a group of organizations or leaders. It's the expectations that parents have for their daughters, and their sons, too. It's the way we talk about and treat one another.

  18. It's who makes the money and who makes the compromises and who makes the dinner. It's a state of mind. It's the way we live now.” Anna Quindlen (20th century), U.S. journalist and novelist. "And Now, Babe Feminism," New York Times (January 19, 1994).

  22. For younger workers that gap is smaller; among all workers ages 16 to 34, women’s earnings are more than 90 percent of men’s. But with time, the disparity grows. The Pay Gap. It’s Real. A recent study from AAUW shows that in 2010 women earned 77 cents, on average, for every dollar their male counterparts earned — a gap of 23 percent.

  23. A 2007 report from the AAUW showed that even after controlling for college major, occupation, industry, sector, hours, work experience, education, GPA, age, race/ethnicity, religion, marital status and number of children, a five percent gap between male and female earnings existed one year out of college. Many young women don’t feel they have been discriminated against, said Alesha Doan, a political science professor at the University of Kansas.

  24. Although policymakers have made some efforts to address issues of equal opportunity and equal pay — such as the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 — there has been less attention dedicated to family policies, including maternity and paternity leave and childcare.
