Feminists began to meet in small groups of women only. Without an outward, explicitly political goal like the vote, feminists became less interested in changing the world or interacting with men. This second wave feminism was a rebellion, from the very start. It was a rebellion against men. As a man, I agree.
Women can, within the law, do anything they please.
But this doesn't actually matter very much to me, because I never wanted to stop them. These feminists cannot rebel against me, because I am on their side. I believe that a large number of men felt the same way. Young men from the sixties were especially prone to be on the side of liberty, dressing the way you want, and doing what you want. They supported feminism.
