### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    BRILLIANT, ARTICULATE, EXTRODINARILY RESEARCHED, TIMELY, CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT BOOK
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2016*

This book is an absolutely brilliant page-turner and should be required reading for every young woman who does not know the history of her sex: what has been fought for, what has been won, and what stands to be lost--before she votes (as all women should!) in the upcoming general election. This book isn't just about women like me, who chose to buck the system and to remain single and childless, it also beautifully illustrates the glorious freedom finally won that allowed ALL women CHOICES--options to the rigid social structures we continually allow ourselves to be boxed into through the ages.Ms. Traister has augmented meticulous research with a sensitive, intelligent analysis of women's past, present, and possible future. She wisely points out that we are at a supremely important time--that we can continue forward to evolve as human beings, or retreat and be eclipsed by those who are intimidated by and fearful of the female sex--particularly men whose misogyny is based in fiction, myth, religion, and greed for power. Traister encourages women, through knowledge, to embrace the powerful block of society that we already are, and to use that power humanely, with courage, and to make the world a better place in areas that men in power have failed to do so.This is truly a fascinating, well-written, non-biased book of crucial importance that has appeared when such a book is most needed. I am buying copies for all the young women I know, which I hope will open dialogues about history in general, as well as my own experiences through the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and now. The last half of the 20th Century brought with it the last Women's Movement and to have lived through such times and then have a young woman write about it, validates all the battles well fought and sacrifices we chose to make. We are, after all, PEOPLE first. Discrimination, intimidation, harassment, and class limitations should be sins of the past, not the future. We must learn from history for if we do not, we will suffer consequences already overcome and possibly face even worse ones.Hurrah for Ms. Traister and her courage to flaunt her intelligence in a sophisticated, articulate, tasteful, and truthful tale of all women!

*by K***0 on Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2017*

I learned about this book from hearing an interview with the author on NPR. It sounded interesting, so I bought a copy of the book and started reading.From the start I was engaged by the author in her tales of the pressures brought upon women to marry and have children. Of course in the first half of the 20th century women didn't have much choice. There were few opportunities to work and support themselves other than in menial jobs. As the economy changed, and more women entered the work force, things gradually changed.Traister covers these changes and describes the situation today. The age of marriage has steadily increased, and more and more women are remaining single. For the first time, the number of households headed by a single woman are in the majority.An interesting and empowering look at single life.
