The Equal Rights Amendment refers to sex not gender. So, take that those of you who think that gender matters.
It’s being interpreted now that it’s all about LGBTQIXYZ, although I agree that was never its intent. I can remember back in the Seventies one of the biggest objections was that it would allow women to use the men’s restroom. If you started bringing up things like homosexual rights and homosexual marriage and transgenders, people would have looked at you like you were mentally ill.
They even had a “just for women” cigarette brand that played off the whole thing: “You’ve come a long way baby,” was its brand jingle. Can you imagine the “MeToo” folks having a cardiac fit about the term “baby” now?
