Michelle, - I found the "simplified housekeeping" remark kind of funny as well. I guess they didn't have to use the rainbarrel to wash clothes in anymore? I think its a poignant piece. Feminists have always had to labor under the constrict of trying to achieve progress, while not appearing to be too militant at the same time. That's a tough balancing act. I remember growing up in the 70's and 80's and feminism did get a stigma attached. I'm not sure it was a problem with the message from people like Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan, it was people's interpretation of how the message was delivered. Conflict politics, like those sometimes practiced by Steinem and other activists, never makes people feel warm and fuzzy. Phil Novalski

I agree with Amanda.  I do not understand why there were not many doctors around.  If women were having a child I would think there would be a way to have contact with a doctor.  Not many women traveled when they were heavily pregnant.  Did women back then believe that having children without a doctor would be ok?  --Ashley Scutari
