Is the battle of the sexes over?

Afirmando-me como uma "anti-dia da mulher", aplaudo a excelente entrada do artigo de capa da Time. Porque é importante reconhecermos o que mudou:

"If you were a woman reading this magazine 40 years ago, the odds were good that your husband provided the money to buy it. That you voted the same way he did. That if you got breast cancer, he might be asked to sign the form authorizing a mastectomy. That your son was heading to college but not your daughter. That your boss, if you had a job, could explain that he was paying you less because, after all, you were probably working just for pocket money.
It's funny how things change slowly, until the day we realize they've changed completely."

gosto em especial do ZERO no quadro de postos de juízes e altos cargos ocupados por mulheres em 1971.
