Secret agenda behind feminists’ letter to congress | HBR Talk 251

Last week we highlighted the fact that this letter makes feminists look incompetent by stepping over a century of legislative change resulting from pressure campaigns from women’s groups. As we looked ahead at the issues under discussion, we noticed that many of the issues on the list are things that affect both sexes and some affect men more frequently than they do women. As we pointed out before, many of the groups that signed onto the letter are not specifically women’s groups, either. They were politically similar to each other, but their politics are not gender-specfic. In other words, a political faction is promoting gender-neutral talking points by falsely labeling them “women’s issues. Why would they do that?
