“..."Fun?" you ask. "Weren't feminists these grim-faced, humorless, antifamily, karate-chopping ninjas who were bitter because they couldn't get a man?" Well, in fact the problem was that all too many of them HAD gotten a man, married him, had his kids, and then discovered that, as mothers, they were never supposed to have their own money, their own identity, their own aspirations, time to pee, or a brain. And yes, some women indeed became bad-tempered as a result. After all, no anger, no social change.” MenWellsFactsProblemKidsMotherAsksFunSocialResultsBrainIdentityMarriedFeministBitterAspirationSocial ChangeGrimKarateNinjaChoppingNo Anger Author:Susan J.
