I’ve finally opened Pandora’s box: I bought a television and signed up for Netflix. Subsequently, I’m now addicted to the AMC series “Mad Men.” It wonderfully illustrates how different life was for my mother and grandmother’s generation; I realize how much of my freedoms and opportunities I owe to such pioneering women who faced overt sexism.

One obvious example is motherhood… it’s just what women did. The idea of giving that up in pursuit of a career was scorned. Men made money, women raised children. Period. Paragraph.

sarcasm? arent you a guy?

one could argue that these "advances" are nothing of the sort, and that society has regressed on many levels, especially child-rearing and the family unit as a whole, since feminism took hold.

It's nice to know she has no qualms with the downgrading of men, except that this downgrade may be causing "obstacles" for women. It's a hard life being a modern woman. I mean, if men don't have high-paying jobs, or even jobs at all, who will buy the drinks?
