workforce, where many women were opposed to leaving the home to enter paid employment. 1936 Gallup poll found 82% of
American men opposed to married women at work, and with this being the main consistent view in a patriarchal society it would
have also reflected on the women at the same time. This attitude seen in later anti-feminist campaigns led by women, who
believed that the feminism of the 1960s (headed by Betty F w 1963 ‘The Feminine Mystique’ which was against cult of
domesticity) was attempting to force women out of the home and into work without considering the wishes of those women in
the first place. However it was overall social attitudes of the patriarchal society that influenced women out of the workforce, not

therefore it was attitudes of time and misogynistic society that had greater say, but women showed themselves to be

undermining the cause for gender equality, only proved impetus for male attitude, by 1990 only 40% wanted a gender equal
NO- not united, but main society. Additionally these divisions/ lack of unity can also be perceived through the AWSA and NWSA of 1860s-1890, however

YES right up until the end of the period, in which only 40% of American men agreed with the idea of gender equality, believing that it
