Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Betty Friedan wrote in the opening pages of The Feminine Mystique about the problem of women experiencing dissatisfaction with traditional gender roles, which had been buried and unspoken for many years. She argued that women were expected to find fulfillment solely in homemaking and motherhood, while their own desires and ambitions were ignored. This led to what Friedan called "the problem that has no name," a sense of emptiness and frustration among women who felt that something was missing from their lives.
