The new androgyny: therapy of "liberated" couples.
Under the impact of women's liberation, many couples are seeking to develop relationships in which roles are less sex-linked and more androgynous. To help such couples and their families, therapists must re-examine and modify their own sexist preconceptions. However to be effective even the most "liberated" therapist and couple must distinguish between problems arising from sexism and from each member's personal history and psychodynamics.
