...changed, however, is the way doctors listen to their patients' health concerns. If a woman complains of chest pain, for example, but says it only bothers her when she's feeling "worked up" - but not on the treadmill or climbing a flight of stairs - her physician should interpret her emotional state as a real, physical risk factor, says Brotman. "The trigger is emotional, and physicians tend to blow that off," he says. "Traditional Western medicine has really endeavored to think of the body as a machine, and disease as how the machine breaks down. [Doctors can be] reluctant to think...
...take on nontraditional roles in the home and family, it also makes a difference to the marriage. Coltrane of UC Riverside and John Gottman at the University of Washington found in separate studies that when men contribute to domestic labor (which is part and parcel of parenting), women interpret it as a sign of caring, experience less stress and are more likely to find themselves in the mood for sex. This is not to say that more involved fathering has erased marital tensions or that it hasn't introduced new ones. Dads admit they get fussed over for things moms...

And both conflicts are about the right ways to interpret the legacies of feminism. If the personal is the political, as the women on the barricades made us believe, then even choices about how to face old age are going to be loaded. Barbara Kass, a New York City psychotherapist and definitely a citizen of Woodstock Nation in the '60s, feels...
...attempt to maintain the integrity of sound lenders and borrowers and stop the markets from seizing up. Whether this saves the day or is seen as just a symptom of more bad news to come for risky assets will then be the next big issue for investors to interpret. Normally, such moves are seen as bad news. But for investors who have been savvy and patient, such rocky times may offer a fine opportunity to pick up cheap equities, particularly in sectors likely to benefit from powerful long-term trends such as climate change, demographic change and the burgeoning wealth...
