We gave Schlafley two pages in “A Patriot’s History of the US,” and three in “A Patriot’s History of the Modern World”.

The definition for feminist is: a person who supports feminism

The definition for feminism is: the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

So I am not sure I can agree labeling her as a feminist.

But she was indeed a great women who fought for respect for femininity, which is even more important than the feminist battle.

Phyllis Schlafly was truly a feminist. Almost single-handedly she took on the President, the Congress, and a majority of the state legislatures and stopped the ERA. She self-published A Choice, Not An Echo which went on to sell over a million copies. In her fifties, after having and raising six children she want back to school and got a law degree and continued the fight for conservative principles. That my Freeper friends, is one hell of a woman! Not Gloria Steinem, or Betty Friedan, or Germaine Greer, or Jane Fonda!

The world didn’t “lose” Phylis Schlafly. She spent her life, her considerable talents, and her unbounded energy giving the world a true female paragon worthy of emulation. Her writings, her speeches, her forum ... none of those are “lost,” and, God willing, never will be.

People die. Great ideas do not.

So sad. Not only a great feminist but great conservative mind.
