We might as well have said slavery wasn’t such a bad idea. That’s the effect my new book, The Flipside of Feminism — which I co-authored with Phyllis Schlafly — has had on left-wing women.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned these past few weeks since the book’s release, it’s that the damage left in the wake of the feminist movement – STDs, heartache, skyrocketing abortion rates, failed marriages, absentee parenting, and the emasculation of men – isn’t the worst of it.
The anti-abortion group New Life is raising eyebrows with 30 controversial billboards to be placed in South Side Chicago. The most prominent billboard features the face of President Obama. Why President Obama’s face?

On Friday night, the abhorrent idjit known as Bill Maher used a crass and offensive slur about Sarah Palin. It is one that I will not repeat here, but suffice it to say it is a favorite misogynistic epithet of the lofty, oh-so-enlightened leftist set.

Hello, small man’s complex!
What was more infuriating, although also not very surprising, was the lack of media response.

Editor’s note: The following is adapted from a speech delivered on March 8 by the author in observance of Women’s History Month for the New York County Supreme Court’s Gender Fairness Committee.
When my Second Wave generation of feminists started out, Gender Fairness committees did not exist nor did as many women lawyers and judges or the number of feminist lawyers, both male and female, whom I see here today. As many of you know, my or should I say, our generation had the privilege of changing all that.
