The sexual revolution is over. Women now compete with men on an equal basis in the job market.
Husbands share the child-rearing and household duties with their wives.
Women don't burn their bras in protest and men have seen the light. That message, while well intentioned, ignored the very real obstacles that would block our paths and sometimes set us up, as adults, to blame ourselves when we failed to overcome them. Women talk Gloria Steinem, but think Carol Brady. They yearn for financial independence through exciting and satisfying careers, but they panic about marriage and finding the right man. They had sex earlier than their mothers did, have had more partners and are more likely to initiate encounters, yet more experience and freer license haven't necessarily translated into greater enjoyment.
