These authors talked about technological advancements in the lives of women and how they don't make the lives of women easier. Cowan focused on household technologies such as the washing machine and the television which don't make women's lives easier but make us expect more of them and how the television and other technology decrease family involvement. Ramos focuses more on technology fostering gender segregation. She talks about technology in Third World countries and how they are inappropriate and few have access. Overall these authors are denouncing technology because it fails to make women's lives easier or fulfill their needs as a gender.
Technology creates a gender segregation and women are usually confined to the lower half.

Andrews wrestles with the question of whether or not surrogacy should be legal and discusses several feminist viewpoints on the issue.
