I am enjoying this women's studies class because I am able to see how much has changed in my lifetime and how much there is still left to do!
In my last reading response I commented upon the practice in the seventies and before to divide the job classified ads into Help Wanted Male and Help Wanted Female
. I told about a conversation I had with my daughter relating this fact and her astonishment at the practice.
Then one of my classmates read my paper, and said she couldn't believe it either.
What I think is telling about this practice, for me personally, was that I didn't really think anything of it. This was just the way things were done, so we accepted it, just like a good girl! ;-)
