either/or

Making mothering and working an either/or robs us all of the powerful contributions mothers make to our economy.

Again, an either/or debate­—this kind of assistance is depicted as helping employees, not employers.

It is another one of those either/or guilt-fueled debates—should we be having quantity time or quality time with children?

And a lot of the Mommy Wars have been about it being either/or.

An "either-or" more terrible no doubt than the one he had formulated before her just a year ago.

In any event, the "either-or-ness" has been most unfortunate in its consequences.

When "either-or" is used in the reproduction of dreams, it is, as I have already mentioned, to be replaced by "and."

The dream never utters the alternative "either-or," but accepts both as having equal rights in the same connection.
