Overall I found this book disappointing. Not so much due to the topics covered, but I didn't really think it was a memoir. Rape, abortion and battery were some of the hard topics covered, along with women and the media; the basis or beginnings of feminism and feminist authors. The whole era of this feminist movement can be summed up by the authors own words "suffered from burnout and divisive internal struggles stemming from the usual problems endemic to all movements for social change - theoretical disputes, personaility differences, ego trips and power plays" - women were too busy fighting among themselves. The author seems to think the headway made in rape and abortion is complete, but are still two topics discussed today as requiring further discussion, debate and activisim. Quotes through the book remind you however of just how far things have come. "Imagine a time - or summon it back into memory - when a husband was required to countersign a wife's application for a credit card, a bank loan, or automobile insurance, when psychiatrists routinely located the cause of an unsatisfactory sex life in the frigid, castrating, ball breaking female partner, when abortion was an illegal, back-ally procedure, when rape was the woman's fault, when nobody dared talk about the battery that went on behind closed doors, or could file a complaint about sexual harrassment." The advocates for women's sufferage in the late 1800s and early 1900s along with these women in the 1960s and 1970s have brought us to a point we need to make sure to maintain and continue forward.
