"It is considered unskilled labor because it has traditionally been thought that any woman knows how to do housework."

"Domestic service is woman's work because housework is woman's work."

"We may then begin to understand the extent to which their personal experiences are a product of the nature of their occupation, their social class, their lives, their race and the particular idiosyncrasies of their individual lives."
