Those who did not think thy were oppressed simply were content with their life as it was. Those who were not spoke for those who wanted more opportunity. Which i am thankful for as a woman who likes the fact i can easily be accepted at universities and positions in the workforce which were originally thought of as male dominated (concept artist for me). You are actually talking to a feminist. One who wants equal opportunity for all...not just women.
It is a little more complicated than that. Once during the eighties the news drones were going on about how bad Generation X was turning out. Truth is, the Boomers had freaked the GIs out and we got to take the heat for it, nothing really odd about that. Boomers fuck up and Xers have to deal with the mess. My great -grandmother then said "If no one is home raising the kids then what do you expect." This may surprise you but many of the GI women did in fact work, they just didn't do it while there were children in the house because it was a responsibility that could not be avoided. Boomer women did try to have it all and it did not work out well for the children. Something that you might want to think about, particularly if you want a family.
You would do well to spend some time contemplating what the term "flyover country" really means. New Zealand is far more homogeneous than the US ever was. The fifties were probably as close as the US ever came to having one culture. Personally I would rather live in flyover country because Detroit is toast and Chicago is circling the drain and as the US empire ends others will follow. I am willing to bet that everyone of the cities currently run by the Democrats will self-destruct in the coming decades. Not sure if I will live long enough to see all of it but I think that you will.
