Meghan and Martin Break the Rules
This novel, like the earlier one, Meghan and Beth discover, It's a Men's World, the underlying theme that women are people. People who often are not allowed to oversee their own sexuality.
Nature has programmed humans' life force toward reproduction, although that force can be directed toward many goals, good or bad for society.
Gender expectations can even lead to ignoring the presence of women in the street, in meetings, and in organizational plans.
Cultural definitions are often unconscious, may facilitate, but often interfere with relationships between men and women. These unconscious gender prescriptions show up early in the novel as Meghan and Martin return from their honeymoon and set up their apartment. Gender issues show up at work in sexism. Racism intertwines with sexism in the book.
