Book 54: The Feminine Mystique

I decided I needed to read this if I wanted to consider myself a feminist, so that I knew more about what feminism means. I'm not a 50s housewife; I only play one on TV.

Front Cover

The first few chapters were especially good and eye-opening. Later, it got a little bit dated (homosexuality and autism caused by an overly-attached, immature mother?!). But the final chapter, which included suggestions for ways women can find meaningful, creative ways to enrich their lives, was great as well.
