CONT

Some see the era of post-feminism as one in which women enjoy the fruits of their elder sisters' struggles but ignore or reject the ideals from which they sprang. Others regard the period as a time of progress, freed from the shackles of doctrine; they perceive a reformed consciousness of women's rights on the part of men as well as women, and the development of feminism into a tough maturity.
