In a front page story today, the Washington Times reports that the new congressional majority has revived the prospects for the Equal Rights Amendment. (I had to double-check the paper’s dateline). Call it the luck of the Irish given that my book is just out in paperback. Back in 1982, the ERA died when it fell three states short of the 3/4 necessary to ratify it during the proscribed period. Now feminists and some of the men who fear them hope to win ratification in those three states and have a compliant liberal Congress certify the results by a simple majority vote. Discrimination against women in employment and education has been outlawed at the federal level for 40 years, so what do these perpetually aggrieved women want? Nothing that enjoys broad public support, I argue. Conservatives should welcome the debate that this relic could launch.
