Women cooked the meals and took care ofthe home and the children. 17 By the middle of the 20th century, however, men’s and women’s roles werebecoming less firmly fixed.      In the 1950s, economic and social success was the goal of the typical American, but in the 1960s a new force,called the counterculture, developed. 18 The counterculture presented men and women with new role choices.Men became more interested in child care. They began to share child-rearing tasks with their wives. In fact, someyoung men and women moved to communal homes or farms where the economic and child-care responsibilities wereshared equally by both sexes. In addition, many Americans did not value the traditional male role of soldier. Someyoung men refused to be drafted as soldiers to fight in the war in Vietnam.      In terms of numbers, the counterculture was a small group of people. But its influence spread to many parts ofAmerican society. 19 Industrial workers and business executives alike cut down on overtime work so that theycould spend more leisure time with their families. Some doctors, lawyers, and teachers turned away from high-payingsituations to practice their professions in poorer neighborhoods. Some young people joined the Peace Corps to sharetheir skills with people in non-industrialized countries around the world.       In the 1970s, the feminist movement, or women’s liberation, produced additional economic and social changes. 20 Mostof them still took traditional women’s jobs such as teaching, nursing, and secretarial work. Some women, however,began to enter traditional male occupations: police work, banking, dentistry, and construction work. Women wereasking for equal pay for equal work and equal opportunities for promotion. Women’s groups were organizing moreday-care centers for the children of working mothers.
