Naomi Wolf Quote
I thought of how many women told me dispiritedly about how their husbands waited for them to ask—or to make a list—and how demoralizing that was for them. I could not help thinking that there was some element of passive aggression in this recurrent theme of nice men, good, playful dads, full of initiative and motivation at work, who waited to be asked to do the more tedious baby-related work at home, until the asking was finally scaled back or stopped.
