…in a well meaning post defending pro life women from this nonsense from Gloria Steinem. But her post that contains this whopper:
Earlier feminists were almost universally pro-choice and have dominated political debate until now.
This link contains the answer to this canard that is treated as history, but if you don’t want to bother here are a list of a few names that should be familiar if you know any history:
Jane Addams, Susan B. Anthony, Pearl S. Buck, Dorothy Day, Alice Stokes Paul, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mary Wollstonecraft. If those names aren’t enough, feminists for life have plenty more.
It should be possible to defend pro-life feminism without re-writing history doing it, but that doesn’t get you a gig on CNN.



I <3 Feminists for Life!
Even if the early feminists were pro-choice, that doesn't mean that we have to be, too. Feminism should not trade mindless obeisance to men for the same towards self-appointed leaders. Abortion is barbaric; one cannot help but read descriptions of the procedure and know that future generations will be appalled by it. As an advanced society, we can find other ways for women to achieve equality, but shredding our children in the womb shouldn't be one of them.
