A Quote and Lexicon for Non-Sexist City by Hayden

“Men were to receive “family wages,” and become home “owners” responsible for regular mortgage payments, while their wives became home “managers” taking care of spouse and children.” (pg 172)

This quote stood out to me because the author feels like the man should work while the wife tend to the house. In a way, this quote represents my granddad belief.
