In Britain there are ''women-only library sessions'', ''swimming sessions'' in public swimming baths and ''women-only gyms''.

Feminists have also campaigned to allow women join ''sports clubs'' that were previously men-only such as golf clubs and golf tournaments ''(but not to allow men into the equivalent female-only clubs)''.

The American woman by the 1960s lived in the country with the world's highest standard of living and owned 65% of the wealth in that country. The feminists said they felt 'victimised', however, and convinced American women that they were 'discriminated against'.
