This book was very influential during the 1950s, written by French existentialist Simone de Beauvoir. This book discusses the treatment of women throughout history, and is usually referred to as a starting point to second-wave feminism and began a lot of feminist philosophy. I read some of this book not necessarily for facts and information, but to understand her philosophy, which changed many women’s lives during the Women’s Liberation Movement, and to understand the brutal oppression women were done dealing with.

This book gave me lots of direct information from oppressed women in the 1960s, which I found very useful.

I used this to understand history of women prior to the movement and the goals they were trying to achieve through the movement.
