"Those years were essential and cataclysmic, more so than the women had realized at the time. They can't shake the influence, having come of age in the '60's, just as they're coming of age now in their sixties. At the same time, they're entering another new age, promising even more upheaval than the '60s, and they'll have participated in both eras. They're being pulled in both directions simultaneously, one foot in each world."
