A comparison of parental aspirations for daughters tests ex post facto two partial explanations of sex differentiation related to level of economic development. The findings that (1) U.S. parents, with the exception of the white collar mothers, viewed the role of wife-mother significantly more positively than did the Mexican parents, and that (2) while U.S. families are more egalitarian and Mexican families more patriarchal there appears to be somewhat less discrimination against women extra-familially in Mexico than in the United States support the rapid social change rather than the industrial society explanation
