The women’s movement fostered the creation of the National Organization for Women, founded by Betty Friedan in 1966. N.O.W. was a special interest group focused on gaining equal women rights. Its leader, Betty Freidan, believed that women were repressed from discovering their identity by sexist laws and uneven opportunities. Women supported such ideas and began joining the cause. By 1974, N.O.W. consisted of almost 40,000 members. The theme of gender roles and their influence on work, social structure, family structure, and interest group formation is visible in the National Organization for Women, as well as many other women’s rights groups. Eventually, the unity of women won its waited for rights and became equal to men.
