Women, by contrast, are said to be more altruistic and collaborative, seeking power so that they can share it with others.

Feminism was about making women's lives less constrained and giving them more choices.

If my own current husband was suddenly a stay-at-home dad, it would be emasculating. That would be hard for me.

What I've found is that there is an enormous shift taking place in our society. Suddenly there are all young women who are better educated and earning more money than men their age.
