“Just across the ocean in, say Kenya or Tanzania, a two-gender system is vital for the survival of most of the folks who live there. Men do men's work, women do women's work, and so it all gets done and the jackals can't get into the hut and eat grandpa.

“I began to feel that my greatest sense of success would raise the level of masses of people, rather than the individual being accepted by the Establishment.

“There were a lot of different things [in The Women's Room ]. I don't really want to summarize it in this way.
