The New Woman's Survival Catalog

Tiré du site Internet Amazon.com: "This book is a tool for women whose rising expectations are running into a wall of patriarchal privilege: the women who are aggrieved at the discrepancy between the expectations of expanded choice and room to grow and the reality of male resistance. Whether women wish to file job discrimination complaints, equal pay suits, or start their own separatist ventures, this catalog presents answers, aids, tools produced by the feminist movement in battle against sexism. But, it has relevance and usefulness to all women. After all, you don't have to be a feminist to want to prevent yourself from getting raped, to know whether that vaginal itch is worth a trip to the specialist, to get a bank loan, to have access to child care facilities, to avoid car repair ripoff.and the need for these survival tool is growing. This book documents a massive trend among American women occurring on many levels toward self assertion and an end to dependency. It is meant, above all, to be a self-help tool for ALL women to take control of their lives."
