y’know, it’s intriguing. for all the talk about “conservative judges who don’t interpret the constitution” being such a beautiful thing, it’s important to remember that it is very recently — certianly wihtin our lfietimes –that equal rights for women was recognized as a constitutional right. by “activist” judges. it sher don’t say thatc rap about women in that there constitution. at least, i don’t see it. ya gotta interpret that thing to see anything about wimmin having any particular “rights”. pretty cool. and hard to believe how ass backwards we were. I remember guys making comments about the utter incompetence and inability fo women to do any type of job when i was a youngster in the early 70’s,a dn it wasnt considered particualrly neanderthal-like. that’s “just the way it was”. until ruth bader gnsburg or someone or other had some balls and found that the constitution protected women. equal rights and so forth. man. weird. weird that it was so recent that women were second class citizens.
