Quote for the Day:

Outside the formal labor force—whether as homemaker, prostitute, nun, fuel-gatherer, water-hauler, farmer, or domestic servant—women’s work is regarded as unskilled, marginal, transient, or simply “natural,” and is invisible in the Gross Domestic Product accounting of virtually all nations. Nowhere does the work of reproduction of the species itself count as “productive activity.”

This is violence.
