I can relate to most of the 13 Agenda points. However, I need some clarity on a few things. Point 1 - What did the authors mean when they said "and, further, a voting block of eighteen to forty year old. Does this mean that the new acknowledging feminist will increase the voting power of this age group? Point 2- how many years "under eighteen" should a woman be when making a decision to "bear a child?'
Point 3, "Sex for pleasure not for procreation," I agree and disagree with this point. I agree that most people have sex for the pleasure principle. However, there are couples, married and unmarried who use the pleasure of having sex to procreate. I also know that there are people who have given birth to children without having sex. (IE: artificial insemination). Some of these people chose to be artificially inseminated because they could not become pregnant by having sex or the wanted a child without having to have sex.
Point 8, "Equal access to health care." the gap between women's health and the health care for men has create life threatening results for women's health. For example, the following was published in a journal article i used for a research paper i was doing. "A 2000 study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that men were more likely to be prescribed cholesterol-reducing drugs than women were, despite a 1999 report published in the Journal of the American Medical Association stating that men and women benefit equally from the drugs."
