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.

When asked to name a genius, people mention Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, and Steve Jobs. As for great women? In one survey, the only female genius anyone listed was Marie Curie. Janice Kaplan, the New York Times best-selling author of The Gratitude Diaries, set out to determine why the extraordinary work of so many women has been brushed aside.

What is sentimentality, and where did it come from? For acclaimed scholar and biographer Fred Kaplan, the seeds were planted by the British moral philosophers of the eighteenth century. The Victorians gained from them a theory of human nature, a belief in the innateness of benevolent moral instincts; sentiment, in turn, emerged as a set of shared moral feelings in opposition to both scientific realism and the more ego-driven energies of Romanticism.

Emily Unleashed: A Critical Thinking Show for The Broken Science Initiative Critical thinking is in the toilet.

Curiosity and a healthy rebellious attitude, once a mainstay in the American zeitgeist, are now perceived as dangerous traits. Individuals who challenge authority face dire consequences including public humiliation, private isolation, job loss, and excommunication from their peer-groups. If we’re to have any hope of returning to a nation of innovators...
