Attachment parenting demands not just certain actions you take with your baby but also certain emotional states to accompany those actions.

In my mother's day, she didn't go to college. Not a lot of women did. Now for every two men who get a college degree, three women will do the same.

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

Men need marriage more than women do. In fact, they need it to survive.
Hanna Rosin
Pop culture is like our subconscious.

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
I deeply believe that men and women need each other.
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
Ever since viewing screens entered the home, many observers have worried that they put our brains into a stupor. An early strain of research claimed that when we watch television, our brains mostly exhibit slow alpha waves - indicating a low level of arousal, similar to when we are daydreaming.
