Linking otherwise controversial benefits to #marriage has long been a way to make them acceptable. This is the latest version of the practice that I write about in my book You’ll Do, A History of #marrying for reasons other than #love. #immigration

My thoughts on marrying for the "right" reasons. #marriage #divorce #family #love
There is no one “right reason” to marry. Nevertheless, by acting as if there is, we are essentially ensuring that marriage rates will continue to decline. ifstudies.org/blog/marrying-…

As I explore in my book You'll Do, marriage has long been an exception to immigration restrictions. Here we go again. #marriage #immigration
My latest is about a proposal, under discussion for months at the White House, to create a program similar to DACA for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens. The WH is looking for measures it can take to please advocates after an expected border EO wsj.com/politics/policy/bide…

Sometimes you can win too much. We will see if going after IVF is that step too far, my guess is it’ll be #IVF or #birthcontrol

I am a professor, not an influencer, but I guess that needs to change if I want people to read my new book. Help!
I wrote about the soul-sucking labor of self-promotion and "audience building" that basically every artist/journalist/creative worker has to do now ... unless they are very lucky vox.com/culture/2024/2/1/240…
