In this reading, Patricia Madoo and Jill Niebrugge-Brantley talk about how woman had been “written out” of sociology. The term “written out” does not mean totally erased. At the time, as I understand in the reading, women were acknowledged. They were public figures. But later their achievements were not. Women were not seen as authority figures. They were not as important as men. But the women’s information and studies were just as accurate and good as the men. Men and women did work together though. But women were not taken seriously. Several of them researched the problem of race and inequality. This is known as the social conflict approach. These woman published books and theories. this reading proves that woman are just as equal as men. Honestly, it must of sucked.There should have never been an issue with sexism or racism. Everyone is capable of anything, men or women.
