1940s: (The Emotional Hazing More Intense Than Political Debate — While the Record Captures the Political Intensity and Legislative Movements Involving Women Their Archival Curation Offers That What Was More Intense Than Political Debate or Assembly Grandstanding on Any Side of Women’s Rights Was the Emotional Hazing That Women Endured Over the Course of the 1940s — the Continuity and Even Growth of Misogynist Discourse Disposability of Women’s Lives and General Lack of Care for Women): While the record captures the political intensity and legislative movements involving women, their archival curation offers that what was more intense than political debate or assembly grandstanding on any side of women’s rights was the emotional hazing that women endured over the course of the 1940s. The continuity and even growth of misogynist discourse, disposability of women’s lives, and general lack of care for women documented by women about women returns us to the opening narrative of the book — the 1946 assembly attacks were not aberrations but the crescendo of a decade-long campaign of attrition against women’s dignity.
