In the 1960’s women were limited to what they could do outside the home. Most women that worked outside the home were constricted to jobs like nursing, teaching, and secretary positions, others were housewives. As the 1960’s wore on women started wanting more for themselves than just taking care of the home and children, this led to the “Women’s Right Movement” that carried into the 1970’s. In 1972 an author by the name of Judy Brady wrote an article for Ms. Magazine discussing the role women played in the home. The article was title “Why I Want a Wife” and Brady made her point with the use of ethos and pathos.
