Whatever content there is in feminist, it has been put there by the efforts of the middle strata, especially the less well off, to move up socially. To do this, however, they sought merely to expand the existing, and never went so far as to challenge the status quo. Thus, while petty-bourgeois feminism may always have aimed at establishing between the sexes, the consciousness it represented has remained utopian in its desire for and struggle to bring about a partial this it believed could be done without disturbing the foundations on which it rested .. .In this sense, petty-bourgeois feminism is not feminism at all; indeed it has helped to consolidate class society by giving camouflage to its internal contradictions.
