That’s what feminism talked about in the ‘60s, the idea that women should have choices in life, and women should have the choices of how to live their lives.
Feminism seems to have gotten away from that concept. Feminists nowadays preach about women having careers and all that, and say little if anything about women who might choose motherhood and being a housewife.
The feminists looked down on "housewives" back then, too. My mother faced criticism from "feminists" when she stopped working [a paying job] to be home with her children in the late 60's and 70's.
Ironically, when she was a child, her own mother worked. So did her grandmother. They HAD to work. They worked factory jobs and as babysitters for wealthy families. But, my mother yearned for her own mother to stay home.
Meanwhile, most of the "feminists" of the 60's and 70's grew up in higher-income/middle-income families with mothers who stayed home. They didn't know what it was like for their mothers to have to work. So, they came up with these lofty ideals about working. ;-)
For the record, not only did the women in my mother's family always work, but some were very successful... and I mean in the 1940's and '50's... and especially in real estate. One ran her own business. Others worked with their husbands in business. They all were tough, smart, and knew how to handle money. They would've walked all over the "feminists" of the 60's and 70's. ;-)
