Quote by Betty Friedan

If women's role in life is limited solely to housewife/mother, it clearly ends when she can no longer bear more children and the children she has borne leave home.


If women's role in life is limited solely to housewife/mothe

Summary

This quote expresses the limitation and societal expectation placed on women by reducing their role in life to that of a housewife and mother. It suggests that once a woman reaches a point where she can no longer bear children and her children have grown up and left home, her purpose and significance in society diminishes. It highlights how this narrow perception disregards the diverse talents, aspirations, and contributions that women can make outside of traditional reproductive roles.
