Hillary Clinton Wives

There did not understand the state of mutual help within a marriage. Berry also explains that many feminists nowadays dream of a marriage that looks more like “an intimate ‘relationship’ involving (ideally) two successful careerists in the same bed, and on the other hand a sort of private political system in which rights and interests must be constantly asserted and defended.” The household is not a full economy, it is focused on consumption. Both partners, to the feminists, work hard to be able to afford what they find important in life

The American dream: a husband-the breadwinner, a wife-the homemaker, two point five kids, and a house with a white picket fence. The wife is never pictured as the successful one, she is always dependent on the husband. A woman who earns more than her husband is seen as a threat to his masculinity. Thankfully, this notion is changing in today’s society. What is not changing however, is the lack of smart and womanly as coexisting descriptors.

Veronica Tochenor’s article "Thinking About Gender and Power in Marriage," discusses the idea of gendered power in marriages and how this can affect the family dynamic. she conveys about men being viewed as the breadwinners and providers for the family through working, which takes power way from the woman and puts her in a submissive position. Throughout the reading Tichenor conveys about the outdated idea of how power often times rests with he partner that makes greater contribution to the relationship. However, she states “if this conceptualization of power within marriage were accurate, we would expect to see a shift in the balance of power between spouses over the last several decades as women have moved into the paid labor force in great

Unfortunately that was hard for her career she was looking for because they look back at her history. Monica wanted to come clean because she heard of a story about a boy who committed suicide because he kissed another boy. She knew the feeling of being shamed and wanted to commit self harm over something that was turned on her. Bill should have been the one in trouble and got all the attention for cheating on his wife. So out of all of this i feel like Bill Clinton was one of the worst presidents to ever take office.

The concept of family and power is closely related and impossible to be separated. Families, as traditionally stated, continue to practice the control over the family members; the struggles for achieving domination or personal power to influence the rest of the members of the family are usual (Olson & DeFrain, 1994). The researchers are interested in examining if a househusband could still portray his role as superior in the family even though he is unemployed (Is the househusband could still handle and manage to control over the rest of the family members even he is unemployed?) The occupational prestige and status of employment are considered to be a major factor on attaining power on the family (Olson & Defrain,

In the articles “A Mother’s Day Kiss-Off” and “The Myth Of Co-Parenting” they express their issues with husbands. Even though they both express their troubles, Bennetts issue is that she belives husbands under appreciate their wives, while Edelman feels as if her husband is not there enough to appreciate her. Both authors feel as they do not receive enough appreciation and think that they should get more. Bennetts states “We accommodate our husbands’ careers at the expense of our own interests…”(43). What she is saying is that women feel as if they have to give up things they're interested in to make their husbands happy, making them feel not as important.

By using both of these literary devices, Syfers effectively presents her thesis that “it is more advantageous to be in a husband’s position than a wife’s”. However, the essay itself is outdated, and although gender roles are still prevalent, a wife does not have that many more, if any, laborious tasks than a husband does in present time. The ageless statement made by Syfers in her essay is not how husbands are much better off than wives; it is a question asking, what will you do about the inequalities in our

When Bill CLinton decided to run for president in 1992, hillary emerged as a dynamic and valued partner of her husband. In 1993 Bill Clinton had named her to head of the Task Force on National Health Reform, but was soon abandoned in september of 1994. In 1998 the White House had been engulfed by the Monica Lewinsky controversy. Though she publicly supported her husband, Mrs. clinton had considered leaving her marriage. He was impeached, but the US senate

Women and the battle to maintain a work-lifestyle balance has been consistently debated and toyed with by society for ages. Anne-Marie Slaughter, Professor of Politics and author of “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All” explains the continuous hardship of balancing a career and a family; as well, Stephen Marche, writer and author of “Home Economics: The Link Between Work-Life and Income Equality” combats Slaughter’s article and the many gaps present in society. Slaughter and Marche compare and contrast the differences of the leadership gap between men and women, the strategies of maintaining a work-balance lifestyle in regards to family, and the type of dialogue representing men in articles written by women. Anne-Marie Slaughter and Stephen

After several years Bill Clinton ran for president, and won two terms. Hillary Clinton became the first lady of the United States in 1992 – 2001. They were unstoppable, until 1993, first lady Hillary Clinton had the opportunity to implement a health care bill (Task Force on National Health Reform). Unfortunately, it was never pass by the congress. Another issue was the investment the couple made in the Whitewater real estate project.

Bledsoe (1976:372) describes that men want to marry to improve their position by having access to women's production and reproduction. Women marry for male labor or wealth, which often goes to her family. From this perspective, it becomes immediately clear that women hold power that men need to improve their social position. Women do not simply marry because they have no capital and need a provider, but it is rather a mutually beneficial exchange that both parties need. Since women do the majority of agricultural work and domestic work, men gain power by marrying as many women as possible (Bledsoe, 1976:376).

They are also consistently placed in the home and almost never in the male world of work. The man of the home was the breadwinner, and his wife was at home and raised

From the Whitewater Scandal to the Monica Lewinsky investigation, Clinton is probably as far from Machiavelli 's "Prince" as he could be. Even today numerous parodies have been created to play with the speculations and allegations made against Bill Clinton. From his famous in person character to his behind the scenes actions, he is known mostly for the wrong things. With a presidency starting in the early 90 's Bill Clinton was partially destined for

(Coontz 2014, 12). The article goes on to explain how women always feel less in power, because the male brings in the primary income for the household. Also, most times when women have children, they need to take time off of work. This limits the women’s options once she returns to work, because her previous job may not be an option like it once was. Men are also encouraged to cut off intimacy and are penalized if they let their guards down.

Giving women this privilege provides new opportunities for success but also new opportunities for failure in a marriage. Each party tends to focus more on triumph rather than each other which results in divorce. Women equality can also have an effect on the children they have. One hundred years ago, women were to stay at home and care for the children. Since women now have a role like only the men used to, they invest time in their jobs just as much as the mean do.
