Suzy Homemaker

In the 1960s, toymakers were obsessed with idealizing domesticity. Thus, we had brands like Suzy Homemaker, a line of toy versions of everyday household items like a hair dryer, a blender and a washing machine. “Suzy Homemaker” became a popular phrase in the cultural lexicon, and feminist thinkers eventually adopted it to decry women who didn’t challenge societal expectations.
