Journal Article
The Sexual Division of Labor and the Split Paycheck
2016
Overview
This essay takes up an apparently minor idea of Susan Moller Okiris Justice, Gender, and the Family—that employers should spUt the paycheck of wage-earning husbands between employees and their stay-at-home spouses—and suggests that it actually threatens to Okin's entire argument by perpetuating the most central cause of women's inequality by Okiris own account: the sexual division of labor. Recognizing the vital contributions Okiris seminal work made and the impact that it had on the field of feminist philosophy and political theory, the essay explores the ethical, political, and philosophical problems with this solution to the dire problems of gender inequality and injustice that Okin correctly identifies. The essay suggests that her commitment to liberalism may have resulted in a commitment an inadequate vision of how to solve the problems of gender inequality, and offers other possl bilities that Okin could have pursued instead that sustain her strong commitment to liberalism.
