License to Harass Women: Requiring Hostile Environment Sexual Harassment to Be "Severe or Pervasive" Discriminates among "Terms and Conditions" of Employment |
62 Maryland Law Review 85 (2003) |
Title VII was intended to remedy discrimination; thus, it is ironic that the courts themselves discriminate among terms and conditions of employment by treating hostile environment discrimination less favorably, most commonly in sexual harassment cases. As the Supreme Court said in its first sexual harassment case, hostile environment harassment...; Search Snippet: ...Law Review Maryland Law Review 2003 Article License to Harass Women: Requiring Hostile Environment Sexual Harassment to Be Severe or Pervasive... |

Lost Boys and Forgotten Girls: Intercountry Adoption, Human Rights, and African Children |
22 Saint Louis University Public Law Review 275 (2003) |
Everyone knows the story of the Lost Boys of Sudan, thousands of children who lost their families and villages to brutal civil war, fleeing across East Africa to Kenya, where they survived in a desolate refugee camp.

My Father Is a Woman, Oh No!: the Failure of the Courts to Uphold Individual Substantive Due Process Rights for Transgender Parents under the Guise of the Best Interest of the Child |
43 Santa Clara Law Review 649 (2003) |
My father wants me to call him Aunt Sharon because he plans to become a woman. Is he still my father? Or do I now have two mothers? The Missouri Court of Appeals answered both of these questions in the negative by denying Aunt Sharon custody of her two sons. Under the guise of the best interest of the child, courts have denied biological...; Search Snippet: ...Santa Clara Law Review 2003 Article My Father Is a Woman, Oh No!: the Failure of the Courts to Uphold Individual... |

Nanny Diaries and Other Stories: Imagining Immigrant Women's Labor in the Social Reproduction of American Families |
52 DePaul Law Review 809 (Spring 2003) |
Wanted: One young woman to take care of four-year-old boy. Must be cheerful, enthusiastic, and selfless--bordering on masochistic. Must relish sixteen-hour shifts with a deliberately nap-deprived preschooler. Must love getting thrown up on, literally and figuratively, by everyone in his family. Must enjoy the delicious anticipation of ridiculously...; Search Snippet: ...Review Symposium Article Nanny Diaries and Other Stories: Imagining Immigrant Women's Labor in the Social Reproduction of American Families Mary Romero... |

Pedagogical Subversion in Clinical Teaching: the Women & the Law Clinic and the Intellectual Property Clinic as Legal Archaeology |
13 Texas Journal of Women and the Law 113 (Fall 2003) |
