Women wanted to break out of their traditional role as housekeepers in society and wanted to join the business world. Women rebelled in many ways, including burning their bras. Women burned their bras as a symbol of the rights women should have. Even though some women left home to enter the business world, men still treated women the same. Not only did women not receive equal pay or hold equal jobs; men also sexually harassed women at work. This harassment still exists today in offices across the country. Men treated women as if they had no importance in life; they were just alive to satisfy men. Some of the ways men treated women in the 1960s are no longer socially acceptable, but they still present themselves in today's society.
