Re: Being a girl in US during 50s

According to my grandma - yes! Even my mother knew some older teachers who had to quit their job once they got married.

I think sometimes in our current times we're not really aware of just how BAD things in the past could be, and just how recent it was, too.

It's good to be reminded of that, and grateful for what we now have.
Thank god I don't live in the 50s because I'd probably be institutionalized or dead by now.

This is why I hate when people act like feminism was a totally radical and throw-away movement. It changed so much for women.

Yep, IA. It really grates at me when some women today are like: "lol i don't need feminism."

Like, disagree with it if you want, have your own opinions about the movement. Myself, I can't stand TERFS and radfems.

But acting as if you don't need it? Women died for the sake of feminism! I honestly wish the history of feminism and other similar human rights movements were taught more in schools. Suffragettes and force feeding.
The whole point of learning about history should be so that it doesn't happen again.

It's not the whole point, but it's an important one. Another that is relevant to the discussion is to learn that things we take for natural and think they have always been and could only be like they are now, pretty much all of them were nonexistent or different in other times and places.
