The Relative Deprivation of Husbands in Dual-Earner Households
Evidence from a large national survey indicates that dual-earner men are satisfied with their work, marriages, and personal lives than single-earner men (conventional breadwinners). Dual-earner men report higher perceived well-being and marital satisfaction but lower work and personal satisfaction than dual-earner women. The differences between dual-earner and single-earner men are observed primarily among the young, highly educated, and occupati…
An Economic History of Women in America
The Dualities of Careers and Families
This paper examines the prevailing assumption that the dual-career family is the vanguard of new and more symmetrical forms of work and family integration. We argue that careers and families have been integrated in the past by a sex-role division of labor that compensated for men's career involvement with women's confinement to the home; that dual careers are a historically-specific variation of the “idle wife” pattern; and that careerism in the …
The Sociology of Gender
Sex Stratification and Male Biography
This essay examines some of the implications of early childhood confinement to the household for the development of male character structure. The argument developed is that assignment to women and the household makes small boys outsiders, who receive less comprehensible and positive forms of socialization than small girls. This deprivation experience contributes to the competitiveness and assertiveness of the male response to more favored treatme…
Family Structure and Educational Attainment
This research evaluates the impact of family structure on the educational attainment of northern urban blacks. Separate analyses of male and female adults reveal little support for the traditional view that the “broken home” lowers the achievement of black males. Rather, we find it is black females, especially in segregated contexts, who have been most adversely affected by parental absence. These findings are interpreted as reflecting the differ…
Dual-Career Families Re-examined
Assimilation or Marginality? Some School Integration Effects Reconsidered
Black Religion as Both Opiate and Inspiration of Civil Rights Militance
This research evaluates the claim of a general tension between religiosity and civil rights militance among black Americans through a secondary analysis of the 1964 Gary Marx data. It shows that when important secular factors are controlled, Marx's findings of (a) greater militance in largely white denominations (Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Congregationalist, and Roman Catholic), and (b) an inverse correlation between militance and both church at…
Race, Daughters and Father-Loss
This research examines some of the consequences of father absence for female children within the existing framework of both sexual and racial stratification. An analysis of survey data collected by Morris Rosenberg and Roberta Simmons (1972) shows that father-loss has mixed implications for girls and a differing patterns of effects by race. Among whites, the absence of fathers appears to slightly weaken sex-role identification but “release” girls…

Race, Father Identification, and Achievement Orientation
Black Catholicism and the Spirit of Weber
This essay reviews the background of the relatively recent phenomenon of black Catholicism in America and the empirical studies which have explored possible connections between Catholic affiliation among blacks and their changing patterns of secular status. The problem addressed is whether the tendency for Catholicism to be associated with high socioeconomic status among black Americans can be interpreted as the operation of a religious factor in…
A Religious Factor in Secular Achievement among Blacks
This is a study of the relatively unexplored question of the relationship between religious affiliation and secular achievement among blacks. Examining a sample of urban black adolescents, the research sought Protestant-Catholic differences in attitudes toward achievement and black identity. The results indicate a distinctive secular orientation among black Catholics, combining higher educational and occupational aspirations and an attenuation of…
Race and the Father-Son Connection
This study investigates how structural circumstances condition the meaning of the father-son connection and the effects of father absence. Examining a sample of white and black adolescents, the research sought father-present/father-absent differences in personal identity and orientation toward the conventional success goals of early adulthood. The results indicate that father absence has quite different consequences by race, with father absence b…
