AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Historically, this was a moment when women became aware of being mocked, ignored, infantilised, marginalised and yes, hated in male-dominated society. Misogyny had the effect of making many women band together in a 'united we stand' stance against patriarchy and so they papered over their differences. Not to do so was seen as a betrayal, perhaps the worst word in the feminist lexicon.' (Introduction)
