In 1960 the role of the American women was severely limited in every aspect of her life from her workplace to her home life. A woman was expected to find a man to marry, have kids, and bare the full domestic chores and responsibilities, nothing more, nothing less. The treatment of women back then was that of property, and to never be taken seriously besides the duties outside of her domestic realm. The 38 percent of American women who did whoever work in 1960 were typically limited to the jobs of teacher, nurse and secretary, outside of those jobs women were typically unwelcomed especially when it came to professional programs. In 1962, Betty Friedan's book The Feminine Mystique captured the frustration of college educated housewives who felt trapped and unfulfilled with no purpose but to be Suzy Homemaker this was the first budding blossom of the flourishing feminist movement. The amalgam of these and other happenings finally led to start of the feminist movement of the 60’s and 70’s. The movement originally focused on eliminating workplace inequality (i.e. denial of access to better jobs and salary inequity, via anti-discrimination laws.) Although the movement never strayed far from its original purpose, it went deeper into various topics ranging from everyday to taboo.
