Germaine Greer: Housewife Pay
on Sunday, November 3, 2019Germaine Greer Money Quote saying there is no job security as a housewife and it can mean a woman can lose the unpaid role without severance pay. Germaine Greer said:
“The housewife is an unpaid worker in her husband’s house in return for the security of being a permanent employee: hers is the reductio ad absurdum of the employee who accepts a lower wage in return for permanence of his employment. But the lowest paid employees can be and are laid off, and so are wives. They have no savings, no skills which they can bargain with elsewhere, and they must bear the stigma of having been sacked” — Germaine Greer
