You've Come a Long Way Baby?

Surfing around the broadcast televison channels last night one was able to watch the Victoria's Secret fashion show, with long legged female models prancing around in their unmentionables, and also catch the final episode of The Bachelor, which began weeks ago with a group of young women vying for the chance to marry a handsome, young, career orientated man.

Personally I enjoy the concept of both shows, obviously for different reasons, but you have to wonder if this is the world that the Gloria Steinem's and Betty Friedan's had in mind when they fought the "feminist revolution" of the Sixties and Seventies. Thank God that their vision of the future has not yet come to pass.
