“[Negli anni ‘50] Le regole erano chiare, e le attese elevatissime: le donne dovevano essere vergini ma non bacchettone; dovevano fare l'università, dedicarsi a un certo tipo di carriera e poi rinunciarvi per sposarsi. E soprattutto, vivere con queste contraddizioni non doveva renderle confuse, arrabbiate o, peggio ancora depresse.”
