The Time Person of the Year is American Women, celebrating the successes of the feminist movement. They write: “[Women] have arrived like a new immigrant wave in male America...Across the broad range of American life, from suburban tract houses to state legislatures, from church pulpits to Army barracks, women's lives are profoundly changing, and with them, the traditional relationships between the sexes. Few women are unaffected, few are thinking as they did ten years—or even a couple of years—ago…enough U.S. women have so deliberately taken possession of their lives that the event is spiritually equivalent to the discovery of a new continent."
