Feminists are still trying to change society and still have a narrative of being about "equal rights" as a concept. They have equality under the law by any reasonable definition. Reproductive health access and family leave laws are the best example I can think of, and even that's a stretch. Do you have better examples?
- stochastic_monk 8y agoThen why is there such pushback against the Equal Rights Amendment?
- __d 8y agoMy impression of the situation is that while the law might confer equal rights, it doesn't result in equal lived experience. Changing the law is one thing; changing culture and expectations is another.
- ThrustVectoring 8y agoOf course. Changing the law can grant or deny rights, changing culture and expectations can't.
