"Capitalism has always required two economies to function:
The productive economy — making things, building things, the factory, the office, the visible work that gets measured and compensated. Masculine-coded. Paid.
The reproductive economy — making the workers able to work. Feeding them, clothing them, managing their schedules, remembering their appointments, processing their emotions, maintaining their bodies and minds, raising the next generation of workers. Feminine-coded. Unpaid or underpaid."
