More quotes by Hanna Rosin
I could do a franchise for the end of everything. 'The End of Dogs,' 'The End of Cats.'
Hanna Rosin
The average American worker gets something like 14 days of paid vacation. In my school, you'd use up ten of those taking care of your kids on teacher professional days, then tack on a couple more for kids getting sick.
Hanna Rosin
If you look at total numbers in the working and middle class, men still on average make more than women.
Hanna Rosin
I deeply believe that men and women need each other.
Hanna Rosin
We can no more create the perfect environment for our children than we can create perfect children.
Hanna Rosin
If my own current husband was suddenly a stay-at-home dad, it would be emasculating. That would be hard for me.

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.

In China, a lot of the opening up of private entrepreneurship is happening because women are starting businesses, small businesses, faster than men.
Hanna Rosin
Men need marriage more than women do. In fact, they need it to survive.
Hanna Rosin
Breast-feeding does not belong in the realm of facts and hard numbers it is much too intimate and elemental.
Hanna Rosin
Evolutionary psychology tells us that men, especially powerful men, feel invincible and entitled to spread their seed, and that women can't resist the scent of masculine power. Women, by contrast, are said to be more altruistic and collaborative, seeking power so that they can share it with others.
Hanna Rosin
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.
Hanna Rosin
Every new medium has, within a short time of its introduction, been condemned as a threat to young people. Pulp novels would destroy their morals, TV would wreck their eyesight, video games would make them violent.
Hanna Rosin
The general image of a man in an American sitcom is like a complete moron. You'd think the industry was run by a feminist cabal.
Hanna Rosin
NASA projects often have romantic names that link into a long history of exploration and adventure: Atlantis and Discovery, for example.
Hanna Rosin
Hollywood is in somewhat the same position as Las Vegas these days. It went from being the capital of sin to Disneyland, and now it's landed somewhere in between. It tries to keep the sins hidden away and outwardly present itself as a defender of American virtues: justice, individual freedom, and the power of one innocent soul to save the world.
Hanna Rosin
If men can quilt and take over the kitchen, then women can pick up a wrench and fix a leaky pipe.
Hanna Rosin
I think we should all call ourselves feminists.
Hanna Rosin
We are still proprietary over the domestic realm even as we take over new professional realms, and that is a real problem.
Hanna Rosin
Maybe there's something about the outsiderness of being Jewish that makes for a fiery feminist type.
