The Data is Women’s History.

Wait. The doctor who co-authored the book, Modern Woman, arguing against women working, was a woman? Sounds like Laura Ingraham. So… Phyllis Shafly is an archetype, then? Watch the video clip in the article. Not only is the doctor a woman, but the nurse opening the door is also a woman, and the interviewer taking notes is a woman. Not a man in sight. Not that’s Bitchy History.

Books like Modern Woman: The Lost Sex argued that modern women were psychologically disordered, that working women made bad mothers, and that feminism itself was a deep illness.
