"Not all feminists have regarded women’s traditional skills with contempt; there are feminists who see the home as a creative opportunity, who bake bread and cakes, who knit and sew, who grow fruit and vegetables and make pickles and preserves, in the forlorn hope that someone will value the work of their hands above the work of machines. These are the earth mother feminists, flat-footed, broad-hipped figures of fun. The reinvestment of women’s traditional fields of expertise with prestige and value is one more feminist cause that is being lost."

Germaine Greer, The Whole Woman (via feministknits)
