I feel like this book was dated. The main premise may have been through in the 90s and even in the early 2000s, it’s been part of our society for over 30 years and I feel that it isn’t the main issue the way it used to be. With that being said they still had a lot of valid points. The idea that women are expected to still be homemakers and wonderful mothers and yet old careers and they’re overwhelmed and overworked it’s still true. There are still some in that do not pick up the slack which is the main premise they feel threatened because they feel I need it and are worried about not being considered men. But I don’t feel that that’s the main issue anymore. I think the issue is now these super women have been around so long forgotten they still need to help them out. I also think those men are now the minority. In this book the minority is the “evolved man” and I think that is far more than majority in our society now than when this book was written. Which makes this much less applicable to the masses than it used to be.
