NYT moves Motherlode to the Style Section

There was an interesting post in the New York Times today. The Motherlode section that focuses on parenting is being moved from the Magazine section to the Style section. (The Style section is the former Women’s Pages – which often focused on family, fashion, food and furnishings.) Here is the announcement.

There were several comment critical of the move. Here is one:
“Clear message from the new magazine regime : parenting is for the women’s pages (style) section, not the serious journalism section (magazine).”

Interesting that the *stigma* of the women’s pages remains – even with the name change decades ago.
