Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Shandy and Moe argue that the key to women's rank is obtaining high-level occupational positions, as these provide women with greater economic resources and opportunities for advancement in their careers. Control over family finances and contribution to family maintenance are important factors in achieving work-family balance, but are not necessarily determinants of women's rank. A large number of children may also contribute to family duties and responsibilities, but do not necessarily lead to higher status in society.
