"If you’ve never read it, read it now." —Arianna Huffington, O, The Oprah MagazineLandmark, groundbreaking, classic—these adjectives barely do justice to the pioneering vision and lasting impact of The Feminine Mystique. Published in 1963, it gave a pitch-perfect description of “the problem that has no name”: the insidious beliefs and institutions that undermined women’s confidence in their intellectual capabilities and kept them in the home. Writing in a time when the average woman first married in her teens and 60 percent of women students dropped out of college to marry, Betty Friedan captured the frustrations and thwarted ambitions of a generation and showed women how they could reclaim their lives. Part social chronicle, part manifesto, The Feminine Mystique is filled with fascinating anecdotes and interviews as well as insights that continue to inspire. This 50th–anniversary edition features an afterword by best-selling author Anna Quindlen as well as a new introduction by Gail Collins.

At this time of writing, The Ebook The Feminine Mystique (50th Anniversary Edition) has garnered 8 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Ebook is Good TO READ!

Yes, this was a groundbreaking work at the time, but I honestly don't understand how anyone can be reading it -- and rating it -- seriously these days, except as a purely nostalgic, obscenely outdated work. Friedan's assertions about the American housewife were definitely rooted in some real truths about society at the time, particularly the fact that at the end of World War II conquering the household domain became the holy grail for most women, many of whom abandoned their true selves -- their true life callings -- for the sake of keeping a perfect house and raising perfect children. I also think Freidan's claim that females "took over" their family's domestic lives to such an extent that men became pieces of furniture in their own homes -- an infliction that still exists today in many American households, to the detriment of a couple's sex and intimacy. However, I feel that many of Friedan's other points should be viewed as condescending, offensive and completely inaccurate in the context of the 21st century. First of all, women are supposed to have choices -- the point of the feminist movement, no? -- and women are supposed to support one another; but in Friedan's view the choice to stay home is never quite the right one. Second, her assertions that overprotective women produce gay sons is over-the-top ridiculous -- never mind the fact that she laments a perceived surge in homosexuality as some sort of epidemic of the time. This book is pure outdated drivel, something we should be thankful was released into the world at the time, but should now be placed in a museum and looked upon wistfully, as a curious relic of an exciting yet still misguided period in feminine history.
