The book explores the feminist movement of the sixties and seventies in the U.S., highlighting Betty Friedan's advocacy for women's rights beyond traditional roles. Friedan's perspective contrasts with radical feminists, as she promotes collaboration rather than conflict with men. It also presents differing views from social scientists, who argue for traditional family roles, and women novelists, who depict women's quests for self-esteem, identity, and economic independence. This multifaceted discussion sheds light on the evolving understanding of women's roles in society.

In den 60er und 70er Jahren entstand in den USA eine feministische Bewegung, die die Rolle der Frau hinterfragte. Betty Friedan sprach für Frauen, die auf Hausarbeit und Kindererziehung beschränkt waren, und plädierte für Gleichberechtigung, ohne gegen Männer zu kämpfen. Unterschiedliche Ansichten von Soziologen und Romanautorinnen prägen die Diskussion über Frauen und Familie.
