I'll post a big ass thing about it as soon as I'm done. Before I finished, I wanted to know if anyone I know has read it, cuz holy fuck I want to discuss it...

Short and entirely unjust version: Everyday Life of Women 1940s-1970s - kind of a What do you say after you say Hello? for the women's movement. OK, we have suffrage, some people are letting us work, what now, what next?

I think I still have my copy at home. I'll dig it out and re-read it if you want to talk about it. Its actually something I've been thinking on a lot lately.

Actually. You are probably just the person I could use to talk to these days. I've had Big Thoughts that need company. ;)

yes yes! I'll dust the book off and re-read it.

I'm really glad you posted this. I think I needed to be reminded of that book.
