Inside Women's Magazines: 5: Feminism and Femininity

BBC One
on BBC One London

In coping with women's changing attitudes and lifestyles, some magazines prefer evolution, others revolution.
This film looks at how the mass weekly Woman's Own is constantly evolving - but always slowly and subtly, never too far ahead of or behind its readers.
By contrast, Spare Rib, a feminist monthly, wants nothing less than a revolution in women's attitudes. With Iris Burton, Editor of Woman's Own, The Spare Rib Collective, Dr Cynthia White, Dr Marjorie Ferguson
