“Feminism did allow women like me to go to college...”

Thats odd...there were tons of women (and blacks) in college when I was there in the 50’s...long before feminism. And I’m reasonably certain the same was true for many years before that.

"Long before feminism?" The First National Women's Rights Convention was in 1850. That was the first wave of feminism.

The very first valedictorian at the University of Southern California was a female... in 1884.
