My statement was generalized deliberately. Far be it from me to try to actually define what "equal rights" actually mean.
I think that if a woman does the same job as a man and does it just as well, she deserves the same pay.
On the other hand, I think that if women get maternity leave, men should get paternity leave.

"Equal rights" to be a wage-slave? And leave my kids with an illegal-immigrant sub-minimum-wage-slave? No thanks! I want "unequal rights" to be a mother, because otherwise our society is toast! You definitely want ME, and not the alternatives, raising the next generation of voters!
