they're both groups talking about the current realities for (largely working-class and marginalised, rather than "corporate ladder") women
Which was what didn't chime with feminism at that time, since it was largely the domain of middle class women, who would lament the absence of working class women in the movement but didn't want to actually, heaven forbid, meet any or anything.
My brother's ex-wife used to rant about that a lot. She was a stripper for about 12 years, & on discovering feminism, experienced firstly guilt at her profession & then rage at the way she was looked down on (both as a sex industry worker and a working class woman) by her 'sisters'.
