Download or read book Regretting Motherhood written by Orna Donath and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative and deeply important study of women’s lives, women’s choices—and an ‘unspoken taboo’—that questions the societal pressures forcing women into motherhood Women who opt not to be mothers are frequently warned that they will regret their decision later in life, yet we rarely talk about the possibility that the opposite might also be true—that women who have children might regret it. Drawing on years of research interviewing women from a variety of socioeconomic, educational, and professional backgrounds, sociologist Orna Donath treats regret as a feminist issue: as regret marks the road not taken, we need to consider whether alternative paths for women currently are blocked off. She asks that we pay attention to what is forbidden by rules governing motherhood, time, and emotion, including the cultural assumption that motherhood is a “natural” role for women—for the sake of all women, not just those who regret becoming mothers. If we are disturbed by the idea that a woman might regret becoming a mother, Donath says, our response should not be to silence and shame these women; rather, we need to ask honest and difficult questions about how society pushes women into motherhood and why those who reconsider it are still seen as a danger to the status quo. Groundbreaking, thoughtful, and provocative, this is an especially needed book in our current political climate, as women's reproductive rights continue to be at the forefront of national debates.

Download or read book How to have a sparkling relationship in 49 ways written by Celine Claire and published by Tektime. This book was released on 2022-02-19 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This e-book gives you tips on how to fully enjoy your relationship. Are you curious about how you too can a have a sparkling relationship? Well, reading this e-book will help you have better relationships since it has up to 49 ways that you can depend on for good relationship outcomes. 1, Assess the type of your love: Falling in love with somebody is the easy part. The challenge that couples encounter is how to rekindle the fires of their romance often and also to cultivate the mature, trusting love that is the foundation of a sparkling and lasting relationship. What style of love are you using? When you say that, ”I love you,” What do you want to imply? Terry Hatkoff, a sociologist at California State University, has initiated a love scale that identifies six different types of love present in our closest links that are mentioned here below; Romantic love: This type of love is based on passion and sexual attraction. Best friends: This is characterized by fondness and deep affection. Logical: It is characterized by practical feelings based on shared values, financial goals, religion, among others. Playful: In this type of love, feelings are evoked by flirtation or feeling challenged. Possessive: Jealousy and obsession are the foundation of this type of love. Unselfish: This is a type of love that is characterized by nurturing, kindness, and sacrifice. Researchers have discovered that the love we feel in our highly committed relationships is mainly a combination of two or three distinctive forms of love. But usually, two individuals in the same relationship can possess extremely different versions of how they define love. Dr. Hatkoff shares the example of a man and a woman having dinner. The waiter flirts with the lady, but the husband doesn't seem to care much, and he then talks about changing the oil in her car. The wife is troubled since her husband is not jealous. Her husband feels like she is not appreciative of his extra work. How is love assessed here? Well, the husband and his wife define love differently. To him, love is practical and is best illustrated by supportive gestures such as car maintenance. To her, love is possessive, and a jealous response from her husband would make her feel treasured. So, you must understand what makes your partner feel loved to help you navigate disagreements and put the romance back into your relationship. 2, Learn to ignite romance: Romantic love is termed as a natural addiction since it activates your brain’s reward center that is characterized by dopamine pathways that are associated with novelty, energy, focus, learning, motivation, cravings, and ecstasy. This is why we feel very energized and motivated once we fall in love. Translator: Celine Claire PUBLISHER: TEKTIME
