"Men Dominating Women’s Work"- esp in non-profits. http://t.co/NtO4qafRfm @TheMamaBee is back, blogging! Wootz!

Mama Bee gets a little more "angry feminist" with each passing day. http://t.co/BveNFPCYDf

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

Men dominate even in fields traditionally considered "women's work". Why? http://t.co/wUtPgtOIrJ

Nice round-up for tips for the #workingmom who travels from @ExtendedRelativ. http://t.co/vn2khbSrxm

RT @LaurenYoung: RT @mmfa: Nearly 1 in 5 women who served during Afghanistan or Iraq wars are unemployed. http://t.co/YIFY8Qbk

RT @ShelbyKnox: Using a nebulous concept of "gender equality" as an excuse for war doesn't help women. Or anyone. #debates

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @TheMamaFesto: Lots of great 2 mom or 2 dad households as well, Mitt. Shame you won't let them get married if you care so much.

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

Oh yes. RT @sharrensharren: I do not need to get home early to cook dinner. I need federally-mandated equal pay you clown. #debates

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @RomneysBinder: Americans need jobs. I am now accepting applications for Secretary of the Interior. Good one for the ladies, yes? #debate

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @ShelbyKnox: Romney: No, female, I am not going to answer the question you're asking me. I am just going to keep mansplaining to you.

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

No healthcare for women w/o a job. Uteruses for the rich only. RT @melissa_schober: Romney false dichotomy: a job or your uterus, pick one.

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

Great point. RT @maggicarter: @TheMamaBee @BostonGlobe I wonder how many Bain secretaries & coffee-getters were women?

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

Agree this was shocking admission. RT @freshbrewedit Romney: equal pay for women was something he had to "learn" about. Wow.

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @BostonGlobe: Fact check: There were no women partners at Bain Capital during Romney's time: http://t.co/51Wh8abV #debate #debate2

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @JessicaValenti: Women's work participation & financial stability is inextricably linked to reproductive freedom. Obama gets it. #debate

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

Yes. RT @TheMamaFesto: Why women, Mitt? Why can't the men go home and make dinner & be with his kids?

[Mama Bee @TheMamaBee]

RT @feministing: Romney pivots away from talking about gender as quickly as possible, back to talking about strengthening the economy.

@JessicaValenti says what I've been thinking throughout this #campaign season. "I'm Not a Mother First." http://t.co/vlEQDcSN #feminism
