As a young woman in 1968 when I was applying for law school admission, my undergraduate faculty advisor demanded that I visit the university psychologist for a "brief evaluation" before he'd give me a recommendation -- this despite that I was getting my BA in 3 -- not the usual 4 years --with a double major and was graduating Phi Beta Kappa in the top 5% of my class of over 1100 graduates. He urged that i use my history and political science majors to become a middle or high school teacher. He said to me point blank, "Why on earth would a young woman want to go into such a masculine profession as the law?" (I never did get a letter of recommendation from him though I did get admission to law school anyway, graduated (in 1971), passed the Bar Exam for two states, and have been practicing law now for more than 50 years.)

In 1975 I went into a neighborhood bank and applied for a teller job because I needed a job. The interviewer briskly asked me "Why would I be applying for a teller job?! I am male and I noted the tellers there were all female. The tone of voice convinced me it was a sex thing. That question ended the interview. A century earlier, all tellers were male!! Men wore high heeled shoes for centuries prior to the 1800s.
My grandmother was a teller in the 1930’s and 1940’s. She kept the household afloat during the Depression and through the war. Papa worked, too, but had less education, so had a hard time of it in the Depression. He did day work, manual labor. Then he entered the Navy. After the war, grandma was ready to step down. Papa went to school on the GI bill, and got an accounting job that paid all the bills.
@@mariekatherine5238 yep... My wife is 3 years older than I, she has a college education and is a school teacher, I have a HS diploma and mechanic's school and police academy, but no college degree. I was raised on a farm and we still raise livestock, though we don't farm crops anymore. I drive a school bus for supplemental income as well as our share of the livestock sales. My BIL is the same way-- he's 3 years younger than his wife (my wife's sister) and her brother is about 3 years younger than his wife. Both the wives have college degrees and both the guys don't, like me. Her sister's husband farms in Indiana and drives a truck, she was a 4H county agent for years and now works at JoAnns fabrics, and was teaching at a church daycare til this year. Semi-retired now. My wife's brother is a truck driver and mechanic, like his Dad. His wife is a dispatcher and secretary at the trucking company he drives for. My MIL was a school teacher, she had a college education, my FIL was in WW2 in the Army Air Corps and was a flight engineer and mechanic. He never went to college, either. Neither of my parents went to college-- Dad farmed and then got a good paying job at a nuclear power plant, mom worked at the hospital ER as night admissions receptionist and bookkeeper, when she worked. She stayed home a lot too, but never did much around the house. I did most of the cooking and cleaning, til I was old enough to start running tractors and equipment on the farm. She went back to work for aJCPenney catalog store... Dad's folks worked at the refineries in Baytown, TX during WW2, refining aviation gasoline. After the war they ran a motor court (motel basically) for my great grandfather and Grandpa was a travelling salesman filling cigarette vending machines, among other jobs he had. They eventually came back to the farm and started farming in the mid-50's when my great granddad retired. Grandpa and Grandma both worked on the farm and eventually bought a second farm. My other grandparents got married in the 30's when he was 25 and she was 14. Just how things were done back then in deep rural East Texas. He worked in the oilfields and pipeline and sonograph crews, she kept home and raised the kids. Later he worked for a steel mill and she was a candystriper at the hospital. Their son went to college, my mom got married out of high school. Just how it was done then... I raised my daughter to do whatever she wants; she can be a career professional if she likes, or get married and stay at home. Her choice. Hopefully at some point she and whomever she ends up with will have some interest in the farms, but we'll see... we're small so it's hardly a full time job... LOL:)
Yeah tellers were either male or female, a mix, in my lifetime (young end of boomer and life experience pure Gen-X) but I'm still old enough to remember when airline flight attendants were pretty much always female. "Stewardesses" lol.
Same, but times were tough and the bank was around the corner. I went dressed as a female, wig, makeover, nylons, high heels, spoke in a low voice, and got the job. The manager was very welcoming, and even gave me a promotion. Eventually I confessed, and to my surprise, he knew. He said that he was a progressive thinker, and even complimented me on my wardrobe. This gave me confidence to apply to a large department store, makeup section, and got hired. I ended up marrying one of the girls after she secretly found out, but was accepting. I am so happy for gen z that is able to express themselves and be out on the streets turning heads.

Years ago, I was at colonial Williamsburg. I saw some big, burly male historical interpreters sitting around the blacksmith shop knitting. Yes, knitting. I asked them about this, and they said until the industrial age, men did most of the knitting because it didn't take much fine motor control, and everyone kept their hands busy, even a blacksmith waiting for a fuel delivery. Women, they explained, were more likely to do lace and lattice work, because that takes fine motor skills. Turns out, that's true, men did most knitting in most societies since forever. Yet now, knitting is 'women's work.'

The lady in green at the 8 minute mark… naming all those tasks her “man” helps with.. what masculine tasks around the house does she perform? Take out the trash? Mow the lawn? Paint huge house? Fix the hardware appliances that break down? Reverse everything on her and see what she says or expects.
When I was a kid, a guy that didn't make a huge amount of money could still afford to get a house for his family and a car on a single income. When it became a thing for women to work outside the home, many women did. Sadly due to opportunistic corporate greed and consumerism, and the increased cost of living, the husband and wife had no choice but to work full-time jobs to support their families. Now it's almost impossible to even do that any longer.
Yes, and I've met many a woman who is angry at her predecessors for bringing this on. A whole new pool of workers was introduced to a labor market that did not have room for a lot of it.

Ps: When in a highly threatening situation, like a police job, which would you be more relieved to see come running as your backup in a bar-fight you have to break up… Would you prefer a female officer or a male officer?
I would want a down-to-earth , sane, stable person able to comport themselves properly . Too many men in law enforcement are violent , below average IQ , mouth breathers who resort to violence or stereotypes too easily. That being said, a woman police officer isn't necessarily more stable & intelligent ....although it's more likely. I would want someone intelligent, emotionally stable, non-prejudicial & confident.
To be fair, that’s your perspective, which is shaped by social messages. When we receive messages like men are supposed to be “protectors”, you’re socially primed to think men first not because it’s “natural” to think so, but because of decades long priming like this :)
ERA all the way! Really good film. I wish I had more opportunities to get into the trades at an earlier age, but here I am 50 something and went from waitress in high school to the computer industry, TV, radio & film to 15 years working in the trades and today I am driving a truck! My mother was a secretary and raised 4 children. Both my grandmothers worked in a factory before and after the war!
so do you have any kids? that is about the only thing one can say is the meaning of life. to multiply. it's the meaning of all life from virus to human life
@@ronblack7870 Sadly, I am unable to have children but I am helping my younger siblings (who I helped my parents raise) raise their children financially, emotionally and otherwise. Being a mother certainly isn't the only meaning of life! I'm an aunt, a sister, a daughter as well as a caregiver on top of my f-t job.
You stupid misogynistic jackass, women want all the rights that a human being should have. there is no real masculine or feminine when it comes to humanity, every person regardless of sex deserves the exact same human rights. Walking piles of shit like you who try to pass their putrid and fetid existence off as being human and special because of that tiny mushroom between your legs, which you try to pass off as a penis makes me sick.
If it is something that both parties (genuinely) agree on? Nothing. It becomes a problem when a person is told they have no choice but to take on a specific role based solely on their gender. To put it in more direct, practical terms. If a man tells a woman that she has to stay at home and pop out babies and has no option to do anything else, that is wrong and there is no rational, logical excuse for it.
Some people should Not go to College just to get a degree in something! The movie ( Caddy Shack) comes to mind! " The world needs ditch diggers also Danny"! I went to the military for radio repairman! Did a Tech school for Computer Graphics! Last 29 years working in the Tades as a Plumber! 90 percent of work is New Housing! Freaking Love It! HANDS ON !
Whilst I agree that anyone should be able to pursue anything they want to do there's something to be said about knowing your role as both a man and woman. We're different for a reason.
Perhaps you can explain why men are born with nipples? What's their function? I've been conditioned to think there are two genders, but biology and human development does explain why there are different degrees of sex and gender across the spectrum.
@@jaminova_1969haha the only “reason” is biological and dictated by chromosomes (at least in sexes, not gender). THINKING there’s some intrinsic reason beyond species survival and the fact we’re not asexual biologically so we’re different for reproduction purposes, it’s just a construct. There’s no real “role” that’s intrinsic to humans. Only what we socially constructed based on our understanding of how biology works.
Envision the world you would like to live in and every day take steps and do what you can to make that vision a reality. Lead by example and do the best you can. We may not see it happen in our lifetime but the individuals make the difference over time. When we think of the things we miss from the past chances are the people who made that possible didn’t get to live to see the world they created. Never give up for a better future for those who come after us.
Great casting, using the plain looking woman with the deep voice and " handsome" features to play the part of the woman who wants to earn like men do. This movie teaches good real world lessons about life, such as women wanting most to get married, have children and take care of the at home needs of her family, but that this only happens to pretty girls who walk and talk like a proper woman, but ugly women have to work to support themselves, because no man with looks and a good job will settle for a hand grenade, but if an ugly woman can earn enough, she can find a husband too, he will just be the kind of man who cant support himself, or a family, but they can change the babies diapers and vacuum the floors, wash the dishes and do laundry while his wife is at work, earning money to support her family.
Amazing how sociologists kept missing the point for decades. Like, bro, you just low key admitted that men have always been hammer-swinging ditch-digging field-plowing worker bees and women have been the planners, general managers and engineers of human civilization for a quarter million years... and then follow up with "But nowadays, girls go to high school, run businesses and engage in politics." Like WHAT??? 20,000 years ago your women were scolding you for being a crappy hunter and screaming "Give me something to work with you lazy bastard!" in denisovan; you'd bring a woman a dead elk and she'd make 50 different things out of it by the end of the month and then teach your kids how to chip axe heads out of stone in her spare time. Fast forward a couple thousand years and now we're shook that they want to be engineers and politicians again? They haven't literally ALWAYS BEEN that for as long as we've been human?
I think certain things are like a pendulum. It swings one way, people push back, and it swings the other. A movement back to traditional gender roles is upcoming...
Oh boy this one will definitely melt some snowflakes LOL:) How 'bout we just be people, be ourselves?? That was the general idea of this film, which was pretty progressive for 1971 when it was made, the year I was born LOL:)
It's interesting to see these old social conditioning films disguised as "education". It's interesting to see where some of the bigotry and stereotypes of today are rooted.
And it's equally interesting seeing all the propagandized youth of that time being the old people in these comments spamming their "haha stuff like this would get you cancelled nowadays 😂" posts.
Yes, frequently "educational" videos of the past show how outdated ideas used to be & how things have changed. When I was growing up, we weren't allowed to listen to music, dance, or play (non-gambling) card games at our church---even youth group; because there was ONE member who believed those things were evil. This was a normal church . Now, there are only extreme cults who would follow that sort of extremism.
A Woman’s place is at home to raise a family and the man should be out working to bring home the paycheck. That’s what’s wrong with today’s society. We need to stick to family tradition. Today’s problem is single mothers are out there without husbands to take care of family. I blame on the 1960’s feminism movement. Today’s society has gone down the drain.
What an incredible impersonation of a knuckle-dragging mouth breather whose grandchildren don't want to spend time with him. You couldn't pay me enough to have a shitty marriage like that. I've seen what it does to you old clowns after a couple decades of it. I'll take an equitable life partner thank you very much.
It's always was in the pit. Vaulting from one boiling cauldron to another. Might as well just mind your own business somewhere in the outbacks, to be honest. That seems like the better choice
That's very antediluvian thinking. There's nothing wrong with what you described if that's what both people want but nowadays, it's financially impractical for most couples to provide all the needs of their family on one paycheck. It's also essential that women have choices in their long term goals for life. For some folks, the woman is the main breadwinner and the husband stays home. Most modern men love having an active role in day-to-day child rearing. Essentially, everyone must have choices in order to feel fulfilled and happy.

Actually, they were the generation who went to Vietnam, came home, went to work and raised GenX. Try crying in front of a combat vet because some kid was bullying you or stole your bike!
@@jaminova_1969 The "Baby Boomer" generation wasn't nearly as monolithic as you describe. There were certainly some very "traditional", very socially conservative folks in that generation who did indeed willingly enlist to go to Vietnam and did indeed carry forward the methods of their parents generation. There is no doubt that there was quite a bit of overlap just as there is overlap with every generation and its predecessor. With that being said. The 1960's counter-culture movement (hippies, mods, etc) also came from that generation. A lot of the very same things that younger generations are accused of and denigrated for nowadays very much were present (and even the norm) for 1950's and 60's youth culture. Back in those days, younger men and women were kicking off significant social change. They were fighting for the civil rights movement, the women's liberation movement, and even for a version of masculinity that allowed for more basic, healthy levels of empathy, compassion, and sensitivity. The "Baby Boomer" generation was revolutionary in a lot of ways. It is the generation that broke down a lot of the barbaric, backwards barriers and they are still fighting that fight to this day. You may not remember it or even want to acknowledge it but it cannot be denied with any kind of intellectual honesty.

My sister and BIL are in the rat race; both worked in the school system together made well over twice what my wife and I make, and they're too busy and too broke to go anywhere or buy a McDonald's once a week... two new vehicles in the driveway of their big brick home in town, big payments and big mortgage and big taxes eat it all... they can keep it LOL:)

Ps: When in a highly threatening situation, like a police job, which would you be more relieved to see come running as your backup in a bar-fight you have to break up… Would you prefer a female officer or a male officer?
Neither is legally obligated to protect you. ACAB
I would want a down-to-earth , sane, stable person able to comport themselves properly .
Too many men in law enforcement are violent , below average IQ , mouth breathers who resort to violence or stereotypes too easily.
That being said, a woman police officer isn't necessarily more stable & intelligent ....although it's more likely.
I would want someone intelligent, emotionally stable, non-prejudicial & confident.
To be fair, that’s your perspective, which is shaped by social messages. When we receive messages like men are supposed to be “protectors”, you’re socially primed to think men first not because it’s “natural” to think so, but because of decades long priming like this :)
ERA all the way! Really good film. I wish I had more opportunities to get into the trades at an earlier age, but here I am 50 something and went from waitress in high school to the computer industry, TV, radio & film to 15 years working in the trades and today I am driving a truck! My mother was a secretary and raised 4 children. Both my grandmothers worked in a factory before and after the war!

@@ronblack7870 Sadly, I am unable to have children but I am helping my younger siblings (who I helped my parents raise) raise their children financially, emotionally and otherwise.

People act as if “gender ideology” is new but it has been around for a long time
This is delightful and very funny to watch during our age of woke enlightenment.
11:22 *"They want all the rights of a man, and all the privileges of being a woman"* - this is still true.
You stupid misogynistic jackass, women want all the rights that a human being should have. there is no real masculine or feminine when it comes to humanity, every person regardless of sex deserves the exact same human rights. Walking piles of shit like you who try to pass their putrid and fetid existence off as being human and special because of that tiny mushroom between your legs, which you try to pass off as a penis makes me sick.
these peoples heads would explode if they saw what was happening today.
must say those were some good tackle's
This was Brilliant!
10:37 "you do your part and i do my part."
What's wrong with that?
If it is something that both parties (genuinely) agree on? Nothing. It becomes a problem when a person is told they have no choice but to take on a specific role based solely on their gender. To put it in more direct, practical terms. If a man tells a woman that she has to stay at home and pop out babies and has no option to do anything else, that is wrong and there is no rational, logical excuse for it.
Some people should Not go to College just to get a degree in something! The movie ( Caddy Shack) comes to mind!
" The world needs ditch diggers also Danny"! I went to the military for radio repairman! Did a Tech school for Computer Graphics! Last 29 years working in the Tades as a Plumber! 90 percent of work is New Housing! Freaking Love It! HANDS ON !
It's only a problem if you take away people's choice.
Still, they’re pairing off, just as they’ve been doing since cave days.
Suprised UA-cam didn't call this hate speech.

Whilst I agree that anyone should be able to pursue anything they want to do there's something to be said about knowing your role as both a man and woman.
We're different for a reason.
Perhaps you can explain why men are born with nipples? What's their function? I've been conditioned to think there are two genders, but biology and human development does explain why there are different degrees of sex and gender across the spectrum.
@jaminova_1969
Men are born with nipples because the nipples develop before the sex-determining chromosomes do.
@@jaminova_1969haha the only “reason” is biological and dictated by chromosomes (at least in sexes, not gender). THINKING there’s some intrinsic reason beyond species survival and the fact we’re not asexual biologically so we’re different for reproduction purposes, it’s just a construct. There’s no real “role” that’s intrinsic to humans. Only what we socially constructed based on our understanding of how biology works.
Great video.
Envision the world you would like to live in and every day take steps and do what you can to make that vision a reality. Lead by example and do the best you can. We may not see it happen in our lifetime but the individuals make the difference over time. When we think of the things we miss from the past chances are the people who made that possible didn’t get to live to see the world they created. Never give up for a better future for those who come after us.

Four minutes till the first word - sure took a long time to get going!
Narrator's voice sounds a bit like Peter Graves.
Great casting, using the plain looking woman with the deep voice and " handsome" features to play the part of the woman who wants to earn like men do. This movie teaches good real world lessons about life, such as women wanting most to get married, have children and take care of the at home needs of her family, but that this only happens to pretty girls who walk and talk like a proper woman, but ugly women have to work to support themselves, because no man with looks and a good job will settle for a hand grenade, but if an ugly woman can earn enough, she can find a husband too, he will just be the kind of man who cant support himself, or a family, but they can change the babies diapers and vacuum the floors, wash the dishes and do laundry while his wife is at work, earning money to support her family.
13:20 simply false, I love being told what to do by a taller woman
Amazing how sociologists kept missing the point for decades.
Like, bro, you just low key admitted that men have always been hammer-swinging ditch-digging field-plowing worker bees and women have been the planners, general managers and engineers of human civilization for a quarter million years... and then follow up with "But nowadays, girls go to high school, run businesses and engage in politics."
Like WHAT??? 20,000 years ago your women were scolding you for being a crappy hunter and screaming "Give me something to work with you lazy bastard!" in denisovan; you'd bring a woman a dead elk and she'd make 50 different things out of it by the end of the month and then teach your kids how to chip axe heads out of stone in her spare time. Fast forward a couple thousand years and now we're shook that they want to be engineers and politicians again? They haven't literally ALWAYS BEEN that for as long as we've been human?

I don’t oven know what we are today
It's interesting to see these old social conditioning films disguised as "education". It's interesting to see where some of the bigotry and stereotypes of today are rooted.
No one cared about trans till they started pushing it on kids.
And it's equally interesting seeing all the propagandized youth of that time being the old people in these comments spamming their "haha stuff like this would get you cancelled nowadays 😂" posts.
Yes, frequently "educational" videos of the past show how outdated ideas used to be & how things have changed.
When I was growing up, we weren't allowed to listen to music, dance, or play (non-gambling) card games at our church---even youth group; because there was ONE member who believed those things were evil. This was a normal church .
Now, there are only extreme cults who would follow that sort of extremism.

A Woman’s place is at home to raise a family and the man should be out working to bring home the paycheck. That’s what’s wrong with today’s society. We need to stick to family tradition. Today’s problem is single mothers are out there without husbands to take care of family. I blame on the 1960’s feminism movement. Today’s society has gone down the drain.
What an incredible impersonation of a knuckle-dragging mouth breather whose grandchildren don't want to spend time with him.
You couldn't pay me enough to have a shitty marriage like that. I've seen what it does to you old clowns after a couple decades of it. I'll take an equitable life partner thank you very much.
It's always was in the pit. Vaulting from one boiling cauldron to another. Might as well just mind your own business somewhere in the outbacks, to be honest. That seems like the better choice
So you think women should be treated like second class citizens and slaves at home?
That's very antediluvian thinking. There's nothing wrong with what you described if that's what both people want but nowadays, it's financially impractical for most couples to provide all the needs of their family on one paycheck. It's also essential that women have choices in their long term goals for life. For some folks, the woman is the main breadwinner and the husband stays home. Most modern men love having an active role in day-to-day child rearing. Essentially, everyone must have choices in order to feel fulfilled and happy.

Boomers: The REAL gen z.
Actually, they were the generation who went to Vietnam, came home, went to work and raised GenX. Try crying in front of a combat vet because some kid was bullying you or stole your bike!
@@jaminova_1969 The "Baby Boomer" generation wasn't nearly as monolithic as you describe. There were certainly some very "traditional", very socially conservative folks in that generation who did indeed willingly enlist to go to Vietnam and did indeed carry forward the methods of their parents generation. There is no doubt that there was quite a bit of overlap just as there is overlap with every generation and its predecessor.
With that being said. The 1960's counter-culture movement (hippies, mods, etc) also came from that generation. A lot of the very same things that younger generations are accused of and denigrated for nowadays very much were present (and even the norm) for 1950's and 60's youth culture. Back in those days, younger men and women were kicking off significant social change. They were fighting for the civil rights movement, the women's liberation movement, and even for a version of masculinity that allowed for more basic, healthy levels of empathy, compassion, and sensitivity.
The "Baby Boomer" generation was revolutionary in a lot of ways. It is the generation that broke down a lot of the barbaric, backwards barriers and they are still fighting that fight to this day. You may not remember it or even want to acknowledge it but it cannot be denied with any kind of intellectual honesty.
@@ringneck7500 Considering that "boomers" are still doing the majority of the damage since they tend to clutch desperately to their political positions, I am not really sure I can agree with your take.

Is there a reason we're starting with the guy on a motorcycle? Jesus embarrassed that a member of my profession made this even if it was 1971. This isn't how me and my friends thought about young men and women even then...
