- TriviaAndrew Schlafly, the son of Phyllis Schlafly, spoke out against this show through his website Conservapedia, labeling it as fake and nothing more than left wing propaganda. Not all of the program's critics are politically on the right, however: Gloria Steinem, played by Rose Byrne, called it "hopelessly wrong... factually, historically wrong", stating that it was mainly corporate lobbying which slowed the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment.

Featured review
Impeccable cinematography, unbelievably talented cast.
Characters full of charm that captivate you, even if their beliefs may annoy you, disturb you, insult you or disgust you. This show is a cradle for experiencing how to empathize with all kinds of people. Not simply fun or entertaining, even though it certainly is due to the aforementioned reasons, but this show is like experiencing personal, political reinvention.
Can one's character be separate from their true or false beliefs? Have you seen how might beliefs collapse and shatter and turn into a different kind, all in one person's mind? And most importantly, how do you feel about feminism? How do you feel about the political subjugation of women? The answers to these questions will be find if you give this show a chance.
This show deserves a 10 star rating because it was essential for me and I believe it is essential for all. Highly recommended. Congratulations to the creators and cast!
