La Question de la femme

Rate this book
« Le bourgeois a pensé et pense encore que la femme doit rester à la maison et consacrer son activité à surveiller et diriger le ménage, à soigner le mari, à fabriquer et nourrir les enfants. [...] Mais si pendant des siècles, cet idéal a pu paraître raisonnable, parce qu'il correspondait à des conditions économiques florissantes, il n'est plus qu'une survivance idéologique, depuis que celles-ci ont cessé d'exister. »

Indiscutablement un livre très intéressant. Cependant, je ne suis pas si sure de l’affirmation selon laquelle la fin du capitalisme mettra fin à l’asservissement de la femme.
