Informative read. I found the first few chapters and the chapter on Sex to be particularly interesting. However, there is much of the book that is clearly outdated and its definitely not an inclusive read, as it focus heavily on the experience of white middle and upper class women. However, I still think its a useful read both for its ideas and the historical view it provides on the western feminist movement of the 80's, as long as the reader can remain critical of its limitations.
