               Notes

    Customs are the acquired ways of behaving which control thought and
action, manners and morals within a group. Customs are the "do's" and
"don't's" of social life.
    Man learns the customs of his society so well that customs often
become habits. Like habits for the individual, customs for the group
are done without thought.
    Customs are always changing: old ones disappear, and new ones
become accepted.

                Notes

    For a long period in human history, and also in a large part of the
world, women were regarded as inferior to men physically¹ and
intellectually. But women have been fighting for their political,
social, and educational equality for many years. The latest feminism
was in the 60s, known also as Women's Liberation movement, which
occurred mainly in the U.K. and in the U.S. The U.S. National
Organization for Women (NOW) and other groups pressed for such changes
as abortion² reform, federally supported childcare centers, equal pay,
the occupational upgrading, and the removal of all legal and social
barriers to women's education.
