Read the first chapter of betty friedans the feminine mystique. what is the problem that friedan outlines

They were not expected to go to college and get a profession. Instead, women became the center of the family and were supposed to devote themselves to maintaining a happy home. That meant a life of consumerism—buying new products to make their houses prettier, their kids healthier, and their husbands happier.
