If the abstract rights of man will bear discussion and explanation, those of women, by a parity of reasoning, will not shrink from the same test.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress.
Men have as exaggerated an idea of their rights as women have of their wrongs.
Women's rights is not only an abstraction, a cause; it is also a personal affair. It is not only about us; it is also about me and you. Just the two of us.
Men and women have roles - their roles are different, but their rights are equal.
We cannot ensure that women will be free of discrimination in the workplace and everywhere as long as women are not universally defended under our Constitution. As it stands now, the equal rights of women are subject to interpretation of law. That is a risk our mothers, sisters and daughters cannot afford.
Men have defined the parameters of every subject. All feminist arguments, however radical in intent or consequence, are with or against assertions or premises implicit in the male system, which is made credible or authentic by the power of men to name.
While men's rights are guaranteed by specific language in the Constitution, women's equal rights aren't mentioned.
When men and women agree, it is only in their conclusions; their reasons are always different.
If someone believes they are limited by their gender, race or background, they will become more limited.
The battle for the individual rights of women is one of long standing and none of us should countenance anything which undermines it.
