I agree with both parts of the PS, above.

I think, if you were to read Memories of My Father, the book he wrote right after law school, you'd see a really nuanced picture of his grandmother. Toots worked at a bank and eventually became a Vice President but only after twenty-plus years of seeing men she'd trained promoted over her. She was not really an adherent to the women's movement, although his mother was, but she did feel she was being passed by.

Every morning, she was the first one in the door but, because she was "only a secretary," and this was the 50s and 60s, she was not accorded the respect she should have been. He talks about how she worried that, as his grandfather's business began to fail, and her income began to be more and more of the family's budget, her job might be seen to be emasculating to her husband. She spoke with him very candidly, even though he was only a high school kid. They could hear his grandpa in the front room, becoming more and more frustrated as his cold calls in sales produced fewer and fewer results, a la Death of a Salesman.

This wasn't the speech for an extended thesis on feminism and the plight of working women but, if he were to give one, I think you might be pleasantly surprised.
