Description Depicts the feminist movement at two crucial stages in its development: 1910 and 1975. Two plots … demonstrate the complexities which attend the feminist movement. In particular, they explode the twin fallacies that women were all in blinkers in 1910 and that in 1975 all women must join 'the movement'.
