Oh, and MS also filed a brief in favor of "affirmative action" in the Michigan "Grutter v. Bollinger" (Michigan University) case. Such "affirmative action," BTW, doesn't do much to help men of other colors. It's an excuse for the preference of white women in universities and jobs. ...breaks families and keeps the labor pool large.
But the problem with it is...
"Then it will be plain that the first condition for the liberation of the wife is to bring the whole female sex back into public industry, and that this in turn demands the abolition of the monogamous family as the economic unit of society" (Frederick Engels, "Origins of the Family, Private Property, and the State").

The following is from the "Manifesto of the Communist Party" [Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Fredrick Engels]
http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch02.htm
"The bourgeois sees his wife a mere instrument of production. He hears that the instruments of production are to be exploited in common, and, naturally, can come to no other conclusion that the lot of being common to all will likewise fall to the women."
He has not even a suspicion that the real point aimed at is to do away with the status of women as mere instruments of production.
For the rest, nothing is more ridiculous than the virtuous indignation of our bourgeois at the community of women which, they pretend, is to be openly and officially established by the Communists. The Communists have no need to introduce free love; it has existed almost from time immemorial."
Everyone who knows anything of history also knows that great social revolutions are impossible without the feminine ferment. Social progress may be measured precisely by the social position of the fair sex (plain ones included) (Karl Marx Letter to Ludwig Kugelmann, MECW, Volume 43, p. 184,
