"The feminists had only one model, one image, one vision, of full and free human being: man. For until very recently, men (though not all men) had the freedom . . . necessary to realize their full abilities . . . Only men had the . . . freedom to shape the major decisions of society. Only men had the freedom to love, and enjoy love, and decide for themselves in the eyes of their God the problems of right and wrong. Did women want these freedoms because they wanted to be men? Or . . . because they also were human?" - Betty Friedan
Discuss.
NOTE: I don't care what your opinion of Betty Friedan is; now is not the time to express it.
