Abstract

Feminism survived but lost ground during the eighties. Now, following a map of a complex terrain, Tobias details "generations" of issues, including sexual preference, pornography, affirmative action, the challenges of "equality" versus "difference", and more. While her passion for feminism remains, Tobias is not unwilling to critique the Sisterhood and herself. In the tradition of Kate Millet, Sheila Tobias provides an activist's recollection of the women's movement over the past 35 years.
