I usually really love Steinem’s work but this felt a bit off. I think approaching this from a leftist, intersectional feminist, 21st century pov it just isn’t as groundbreaking as it may have been in the mid 80s.
Not to say most of the points made aren’t true, I just think our priorities have shifted. It’s still a really interesting insight, however.

An interesting perspective piece focusing on rich (white) women's intersection with feminism. It's a little outdated now, and definitely could use a more intersectional critique, but it does offer an interesting, and (I feel) rarely discussed point of view that for 13 pages, is interesting enough to chew on.
It's an interesting enough essay, but definitely lacks intersection

I love Gloria Steinem's writing, especially her essays. This one was no different! Her writing is great, and her perspective is always something I agree with.

i enjoy steinem's quick reads, however i just can't get over the outdatedness. yes times have gone on but i would recommend looking at more intersectional feminists' work if you want to learn more!!
