The above assertion meant that women were not permitted to pursue careers.  They were taught to be satisfied with their roles in the family.  This is the argument that women should find fulfillment in their housework, marriage, sexual lives, and children.  Seeking higher education, pursuing careers, and involvement in political activism should be left for the male folks.  Friedan's argument was that the feminine mystique disadvantaged women greatly, both in their personal and professional lives.  Therefore, she advocated that women should seek personal achievement by pursuing professional careers.
