Though even Jane was guilty of wearing white girl blinders. Besides that thing over Vietnam, there was a Doonesbury cartoon that nailed the problem. Jane Fonda would sell her exercise videos, coming across like it was the end-all answer to every woman's problem. And Doonesbury had her pitching her program to the cleaning lady. The cleaning lady was just staring at her with hollow eyes, while holding her mop and pail. It was like she was wondering when Jane would leave so she could get to the floors.
