“Each suburban wife struggles with it alone. As she made the beds, shopped for groceries, matched slipcover material, ate peanut butter sandwiches with her children, chauffeured Cub Scouts and Brownies, lay beside her husband at night- she was afraid to ask even of herself the silent question-- 'Is this all?” - 1963

“The Mary Tyler Moore Show marked a transition in television roles for women, turning the page on all the dutiful wives and mothers, marriage-minded girls and those characters perpetually struggling to transcend their narrow lives: Lucy Ricardo (yearning for show business), Jeannie on I Dream of Jeannie (magical, yet living in a bottle and pining for a man) and Samantha Stevens on Bewitched (again, magical, yet confined to a suburban colonial)”

Mary Tyler Moore transitioned television roles for women. There was a 'traditional' stereotype that women were supposed to step into in the television industry. In the 'Dick Van Dyke Show' she was a traditional American housewife, once she started the 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show' she became inspirational for women all around the world. That women should be humans first, women second, and wives and mothers third.

The book was made to discuss how women were treated unfairly and unjust in the past.

She challenged the stereotypes made about women and that society was the reason that there are specific gender roles. Simone is still a present role model in the present day and a figure that women still look up to.

This quote is about the life of women back in the 1960. They wouldn't have jobs and only be housewife's and look after their children. They would wonder if this was their life and if they were going to do any more with it. They are used to having the men provide for the family. They didn’t know if their life was going to have any more to it and all their good for is taking care of children.

Friedan was called out for her limited scope of cisgender white middle-class women. She was also criticized for calling herself a housewife because she continued to work after having children, choosing her career as a writer and activist over being a homemaker.

In her quote, she expresses that most things were seen from a mans "point of view" before it went by women, this shows that in that time women didn't get a say in things.

In this text, Mary Tyler Moore is discussed as making a transition in the way that women are depicted in television. She started off on the Dick Van Dyke show as just an 'average housewife', she then started the 'Mary Tyler Moore' show where she played Mary Richards who was a journalist. Thus breaking the stereotype that women 'only belong in the home'. She also inspired the likes of Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey. - Myles
