RUN MOMMY RUN! 
 By Talia Carner, author of Puppet Child. 
forty years 
ago , married women in some U.S. states did not have the right to manage
their own property, and all household property was deemed to belong to
the husband upon divorce. More recently, it remained legal in some states
for a husband to rape his wife. (Marital rape is still legal today
in nearly every country in the world that bans abortion.)
In
1981, the Federal Work Incentive Program, three out of four of whose participants
were women, was required by law to give jobs preference to men, who also
received jobs paying an average of 34% more per hour.  
 
Husbands
by law routinely were defined as "head of the household."  
Think
by now it's all been "fixed?  No. But the actual problems are not what you think. Don't look to what currently passes for "feminism"  
to identify or properly address mothers' issues or real women's issues . -- liz
