First we had Margaret Sanger telling us of the woes of American housewives trapped in boredom and drudgery during WWII, unable to experience the freedom, fun, and excitement of going off to war. Then Betty Friedan helped us (not) name the horror housewives endure, so we could understand the pain of being trapped in drudgery and boredom. Now feminist Germaine Greer blows the lid off of the trapped boring drudgery of being the Duchess of Cambridge (H/T Minesweeper):
“It’s not so much that she has to be a womb, but she has to be a mother. I would hope after this one she says, ‘That’s it. No more.’”
