Well, not everyone is in support.
I've heard quite a number of ladies saying, 'I'm not a feminist, but...' I just don't like the gimmicky way it's all been put together.
I would always counsel against objecting to a book because of its cover.
[Gasps] Millicent!
You're reading The Female Eunuch?
The authoress makes a series of very sensible points, notably regarding female sexuality.
It's a thing I spent much of my life being ashamed of.
Hmm.
I never did, oddly enough.
[Laughs] It's like being a vegetarian, as though I was wired to run counter to the general view.
♪ Oh, but why am I being like this?
Why am I picking holes in something the young people are full of fervour for?
Do we perhaps fear losing our place in the scheme of things?
Two weeks ago, I was standing outside the draper's on Inkerman Street, and there was a blouse in the window with a psychedelic pattern.
Jewel tones, but it was such a beguiling design.
And I was looking at it, and I thought... 'I will never wear that blouse'.
Why?
There's no harm in breaking out a bit, fashion-wise.
Phyllis, there is no harm in breaking out.
And if we don't, we'll be left behind.
You're not wrong.
Psychedelic pattern or no psychedelic pattern.
