You can thank people like Phyllis Schlafly for the failure of the ERA to pass.  Never mind that Phyllis had an MA in government from Radcliffe College (an all-women's school, now part of Harvard University) and a JD from Washington University in St. Louis.
Some of her winning quotes, according to Google:

Article's not about him but they throw this in: "Bill Shine exited his job as president of Fox News in 2017 amid allegations he had mishandled reports of sexual harassment at the network. He joined the White House earlier this month."

When I was 18 or 19, I was in a college class with a girl who was against the Equal Rights Amendment because she didn't want to get raped all the time.
 
Someday when I have a week to spare, I'll try to unpack that for you because her logic was straight as a tangled up slinky.

He surrounds himself with ONLY the BEST people.

Mafiosi Trump is here to tell you (again) with whom you can and can't trade while demanding his "protection money".

“I think it is very sad when Germany makes a massive oil and gas deal with Russia,” Trump said. “We are supposed to be guarding against Russia, and Germany goes out and pays billions and billions dollars a year to Russia.

“We are protecting Germany, we are protecting France, we are protecting all of these countries and then numerous of the countries go out and make a pipeline deal with Russia where they are paying billions of dollars into the coffers of Russia. I think that is very inappropriate.”

He added: “It should never have been allowed to happen. Germany is totally controlled by Russia because they will be getting 60-70% of their energy from Russia and a new pipeline.

I mean, who wants to be blackmailed by a terrible bully such as... Russia?

Great inspirational story. Thanks for sharing.
 
No, I'm not going to the reunion though. Haven't been to any. Hard and uncomfortable to try and make small talk to people and pretend to be interested in them and them pretending to be interested in you. I'm not good at small talk and that kind of thing. I didn't have a bad time in high school but I wasn't in the "in" crowd either so it was just a place to spend time before college.

Always accuse your enemy of that which you are guilty...

Holy shit.  I lived on Pine Road at County Line Road right across from the horse ring and cemetery.  Worked at Broadbent's Toy Store in Southampton and the Sunoco on Bustleton in Feasterville while I was in HS there.  Moved to Cleveland in 71 from there so I was already gone by the time Spungeon went through.  I'm going to have to dig up the old yearbook.  Don't remember too many names as I sit here, but I can tell you that I was the one there who broke the school dress code in my Senior year there. 

Good old Sparky Cataldo, IIRC, was on my back big time for wearing 501 Levi's to school.  Everyone else was wearing slacks and whatnot.  I was fresh from Newport Beach with a big chip on my shoulder and attitude the size of Texas and got really indignant when he called my Levi's dungarees.  Said we can't have you here in clothes like that.  Its not proper or something.  I refused and somehow my parents didn't take his side.  I got really pissed and I forget what we called our little underground school paper, but wrote an article about dungarees, Levi's and Einstein.  It went something like there is nothing wrong with my Levi's.  I may be grubby, but my clothes are clean.  They cost the same as the slacks you want me to wear and that dungaree's meant that you walked around in a corral picking up Buffalo Chips and I resent that.  Worked in Einstein with his frumpy clothes and how you can't judge people because of the clothes they wear.  He said you only wear jeans because all the non conformists do.  I said no I wear them because they are comfortable.  There was that non conformist thing going on back then.  I consider myself dressed up if I wear socks with my blue deck shoes.  You should be lucky that I wear socks when I come to school.  I've dressed like this my entire life.  The culture shock from that move was mindblowing.  I felt that I went backward in time 10 years.  It was still Ozzie and Harriet and I was Pumphouse Gang.  That book describes the world I came from, just from a beachtown a little farther north at the very same time and is the largest part of me after all these years.  I had a lazy ten minute walk to my own little cove and my own little beach.  So ...  It got ugly, but I wouldn't budge.  You know how small the school is so it was not a little deal there then.  Being straight from SoCal in 1968 and a surfer I could not blend in and be invisible.  There were a total of 6 people including me who got high in the entire school when I got there.  We all found each other rather quickly and bonded.  Getting high was really dangerous back then and there.  Rizzo was still police chief ...    Somehow I won out and the school dress code was changed to allow jeans and even shorts on hot days.  I was pretty damn proud of myself for fighting back and winning.  I went through the same thing in Berkeley earlier when Mario Savio started the Free Speech Movement or FSM.  Only it was about keeping our shirts tucked in, not jeans cuz we wore them anyway.  We turned FSM into the Free Shirttail Movement being townies an all.  and we won.  It was a big deal then.  You couldn't even get into Disneyland unless you tucked in your shirt.  I guess I was pretty ornery back then.  But what was normal in my world conflicted with the rest of the world back then.

So some of the people I hung with were MacIntosh (MacMotors Jeep) Trosino, Yardumians (Ana and Esther) (their father was the composer), Pitcairn, Aspludh's, and were the Pinciotti's up on Buck at County Line still there ?  The bros were into some really deep stuff, family kind of stuff.

wow what a trip down memory lane.  Oh and lastly my record time from Pine and County Line to the draw bridge in Ocean City was 45 minutes going over the Tocony Palmyra nickle bridge.  Back roads through Berlin, NJ down the White and Blackhorse Pikes, through the Pines and Egg Harbor.  In my 62 Corvair with boards on roof racks.  low riders my ass.  

this sure beats talking about trump ...

He would lie down on the floor. Then she would have to squat over his face, where he could examine her at close range and this made him very excited. When the excitement reached its peak, he demanded that she urinate on him and this gave him sexual pleasure. Geli said the whole performance was extremely disgusting to her and... it gave her no gratification.

The world is even smaller than you could imagine.

I also graduated from Lower Moreland High School in ‘78. I played Waterpolo all four years under coach Paul Barren. Were you there when the infamous Nancy Spungeon left school to ultimately link up with Johnny Rotten and then tragically die in real shady circumstances? I lived near the intersection of Huntington Pike and Byberry Road. There was a market there called White‘s Market across from the Methodist Church back in the day. I also went to the Neshaminy Mall as well the Feasterville and Leo Malls. To buy records and go to the movies.

Real small world!
