Publisher's Synopsis
We are told that women are now equal to men and there's nothing left to fight for. Certainly, women's lives were transformed in the 20th century, but while a miniority of women can now command high professional salaries, the majority still earn less than men and carry the responsibility for most work in the home. Meanwhile, the commercialisation of sexsim - raunch culture' - has reached new heights. Judith Orr traces the roots of women's oppression and shows why the way society is organised continues to leave most ordinary women losing out.'
