Rebecca Traister Quote

Of course, some people's decadence is other people's liberation; the exhaustion with child-bearing a child-rearing that Douthat finds so troubling is the weariness of women who've borne the children and, until very recently, raised them largely on their own, their basic sacrifices the sacrifices of individual identity, social relationships, or the pursuit of equality in the world.
