On vacation, surrounded by old books, I picked up this "career romance" about a school nurse dated 1964. Check out the end! My mom definitely drank this Kool-Aid, tho she shook it off and raised me to adore Gloria Steinham. #sexist #bullshit

Laura317 Ugh. Nothing wrong with helping your husband, but for that to be your career? 🙄 7y
EloisaJames @Laura317 it really bothered me that it was in a 'career' series--so young girls thinking of doing something their mothers didn't, would be basically told not to! 7y

DGRachel I think my eyes almost got stuck in the back of my head. That's...special. 7y
melbeautyandbooks That last paragraph is awful! So thankful for all of the women who fought so hard to get us where we are today, although there is a lot yet to be done. I met the fabulous Gloria Steinem a few years ago at an airport lounge. She was wonderful! 7y
