woman alone can come at a disadvantage in many cases so although America has addressed some gender inequality issues in our history, we should also focus on the discrimination that women face daily merely for their gender (Morabito 2016). Arlie Russell Hochschild and Dorothy E. Smith are two female sociologists that are relevant to the gender inequality issue and both are introduced in the textbook Classical and Contemporary Sociological Theory (Appelrouth and Edles 2016). Both of these sociologist’s

In the text " Nannies, Maids, and Sex Workers in the New Economy," Barbara Ehrenreich and Arlie Russell Hochschild argue that women from third world countries have to leave their homes and go to developed countries in order to provide for their families. When these women move so far away their family bond is affected and their children miss out on the love and affection they need. These women also run the risk of getting paid little for their work, being manipulated by their bosses, and also having

In “The Second Shift: Working Parents and the Revolution at Home” author Arlie Hochschild examines the struggle faced by full-time working married couples to separate work and family. The families Hochschild focuses on are among different races and social classes, but are specifically two-parent heterosexual married couples, both maintain a full-time job, and have a child(ren) under the age of six (Hochschild 5).

In this essay, the theme is focused on President Trump’s actions and mindset towards women's health care. The original article is called, “Trump relaxes Employer's Duty on Birth Control”, by Robert Pear and Rebeca R. Rulz. But the article was revised on October 6, 2017, and it is now titled as, “ Trump Administration Rolls Back Birth Control Mandate.” The article represents inequalities of women's health care, focusing on birth control.

While in March 19, 2016 Adam Conover did a presentation

She explains that “The more attracted we are to the world of work, the more its deadlines, its cycles, its pauses and interruptions shape our lives and the more family time is forced to accommodate to the pressures of work.” The attempt to balance personal and professional lives is a growing challenge for today’s working parents, who are seeing a change in the amount of time they spend at work and home, all

As seen in the film Mardi Gras: Made in China and the novel Global Woman, Director David Redmon and authors Barbara Ehrenreich and Arlie Russell Hochschild portray the exploitation of women in the workforce and in marriage from Third World countries, thus suggesting that imposing emotional labor on female workers puts people in developing nation-states at a greater disadvantage and ultimately
