À propos de ce contenu audio
The Pig Farmer’s Wife drops the listener into the Second Wave of Feminism—a time when women were prohibited from managing their own finances, acquiring a bank loan, or owning a credit card in her own name. Women needed a male overseer for those things, someone who would agree to be responsible for their debts. Women, by both law and by public opinion, were expected to accept lower pay and the likelihood of being fired from their jobs when they became pregnant. It was also generally assumed; women would be subservient to the men in their lives.
It was a brave woman who dared to express opinions that differed from her husbands, and unheard of for a woman to begin a business of any type, let alone an all-female owned and operated one. Coincidentally, it was also when the birth control pill was introduced to the nation, and that changed everything, because for the first time in history, women had the ability to plan her family size.
