She says so much of what I feel, as a women who was married, divorced. People especially woman who are married or with a man, that a single woman can't be alone or should not be alone, that they are so lonely. Everyone gets lonely. You can be surrounded by a group of people or a special someone and still become lonely, that's a fact of life, for all of us. I love what she says very direct, clear and honest. Refreshing.
I like how she looks at the perspective and struggles of men as well. She seems to get the whole picture.
Exactly! This is what many feminists these days tend to forget about - speaking only from women's perspective - and this is why men perceive modern feminism as a menace. Do I get it right?
@@user-sx1ug6qn4w who do you mean exactly by "many feminists these days"? are there certain voices you have in mind? Ms. Friedan makes the wonderful point that there were as many men as women supporting the second wave of feminism; its more the anti-feminist backlash that portrays men as so 'offended' by feminism.

Why arent you offended at men doing most crimes to everyone around them?
she is sweet, lovely, personable, an individual. she is a beautiful human being! this interview is very insightful. thank you!
7:00 what marriage was this
She is extremely likeable. Very clever and interesting to listen to. Phyllis Schlafly not so much.
Not all women want children. Not all women/men can have children. Not all women want to be with a man. So many variables.
As a woman and an African woman Betty’s silent struggle as a novelist and a mother makes me want to shed a tear.
What an amazing, brave, intelligent person. Thank you Betty
I think she said in her book. 'It wasn't that women had to much to do. But that they had to little to do'. Now women are taxpayers often having to balance job with childcare.
It's sad that even today I get questioned because I don't want to get married or have children. People still think there's some wrong with me for having those choices. Even worse, some of this is coming from the gay community that should be more enlightened about these things.
I find nothing about her redeeming. But let's alllll applaud a woman who made it her life's mission to crap all over women who didn't share her views.
She never did that. All she wanted was that women be allowed to exist as persons.
"it does take courage on women's part to move into a new way. . . to become more alive, and to become more truly ourselves"(11:20)
I knew that blonde lady was gonna say some shit, felt bad for pre-judging but nah my instincts were right.
I doubt back then the media would ever allow a feminist to speak without someone else there to be contrary.
16:12: "They're here to stay."
Why does she seem so happy about that prediction?
12:30 say "no" to what?
Betty Friedan Was a very great person
Habesha negn
@stlgtrace yeah it's kind of obvious.
Thank You, Betty
we need her today woow
Look around you, you see how society is not functioning correctly, and YOU think we need MORE of that. Pathetic.
Do you realize that life was just the way it was, men were miserable too. It wasn't till advertising came along that women felt the need to be more.
Love her voice too
Mary Parkinson, definitely not a feminist.
y z lol yep
@@samanthaz8836what about Shahrazad Ali
If anything men were more depressed because they had no one to talk to
Betty Friedan was irrational.
Deranged actually. Went from a Stalinist to a feminist.😂
Not saying their behavior was ok
7:30 she has freedoms and yet she admits she doe not feel free - what a distorted philosophy
Thank you gloria
Another PIECE OF SHIT, right there.
What's she doing outside of the kitchen?
She's was on to the media even back then
damn she ugly
tsk tsk
She was evil incarnate.
She was evil evil evil. She destroyed many families, especially the lives of children😡
Shades of Golda Meir.
She is a sex goddess next to Meir
All these feminists lost to Phyllis.
Have they? Than why do gays get married, the typical Phyllis style housewife is a shrinking social condition or the equality of opportunities and payment are every year more of the reality? Do you think we live in the ideal world Schlafly would have theorized about in the 70’ ?
She never won against Phyllis Schlafly. Not once.
John R. McCommas feminists won tho hun.
@@ghinwaj8858 Yes and No. Where you have "won" like the rest of the extreme Left, your policies have proven to be failures. Where Mrs. Schlafly has won is a almost everyone have accepted women as equals without calling themselves feminists. Who stole feminism? You did. You reinvented it to the extent that no right-thinking person can call her or himself a feminist.
John R. McCommas
how have feminist policies proven to be failures?
Unless you're gay. Then we look the other way.
She was so homophobic
@@alex-yf9zp14:00 the guilt the burdens the naggings
