For example, John Tierney derided “Take Your Daughter to Work” day in an op-ed piece: “I’m sure there are guys out there pressuring their partners to become housewives, but I don’t personally know any. I do, however, know men angry at their wives for not going off to work. One marriage ended largely because of the husband’s fury at this wife’s refusal to go back to her job as a lawyer once their kids were in school.” “The Truth of the Myth About Mom,”
