Revised Women’s Page/Lifestyle Section


I was interested to see that a newspaper is revising its feature section with a nod to its 1960s women’s section, according to this article.
The editors asked readers: “What do you wish was still part of The Chronicle?”
The answer was: “Enhance Your Life Section.” 
The newspaper is creating a section called “Your Life.”
It was described as “a cross between the Women’s sections of the 1960s and 1970s and the scratch-and-sniff ink on April Fools’ Day Lifestyle section of the 1980 and 1990s.”
I was pleased to see a newspaper recognize the value of the 1960s women’s pages rather than dismissing them as fluff – which typically happens.
