This is the first generation of young women who have no collective memory of the struggles their predecessors have endured in securing the rights they now take for granted--the pill, abortion, and equality in the workplace, among others. While some double standards and glass ceilings still exist on the battleground of the sexes, Gen Y girls [females between the ages of 7 and 24] see very few barriers ahead. Confident and commanding respect, they are taking with them into the marketplace a vastly different view of their 'place' in society."
