Halwick,
Yeah there was feminism in the 70's, and people then did not think it was some golden age. They complained about many problems too. But the thing is, at least people looked a lot more normal and natural compared to today. People had more fun too. Creativity and freethinking was considered cool back then. And flirtation was normal, not vilified.
AW were also not paranoid and uptight like today. Their body language was very different. They were all for women's lib, but still looked feminine, natural and NOT bitchy. Watch the TV shows from the 70's, and you'll see what I mean.
For example, the girls in Charlie's Angels believed in equality and women's rights and said so openly in the show. But they were never bitches. They still acted sweet, feminine, and classy, even if they were smart asses. Same with Jamie Sommers in the Bionic Woman.
What's amazing is that back then, an AW could be beautiful, tall, sexy, and look like a model, yet be sweet, kind, good-natured, innocent and wholesome-looking at the same time, without being a bitch. But today, an AW cannot be hot without being a bitch. Man. It was like a different world back then. What happened?!
Here are some images of these women to show you what I mean. Notice that they do not need much makeup to look good. They look far more natural. Notice also that their faces look more soulful and tender too.

Jamie Sommers (Lindsay Wagner) from The Bionic Woman
Here is the intro to the Bionic Woman series. Notice in the scene when Jamie Sommers breaks the tennis ball in her hand, that her facial expression looks sweet, feminine, genuine and expressive, like she's truly awed. The music theme is also very sentimental.
