I knew there was another reason why I quit them. ;)

Very disappointing.

Apparently all you need with NOW is the the right reproductive plumbing. I quit NOW in the late 70's after their message moved away from equal rights for women to all-men-are-evil-incarnate message. Screw 'em.

which I'm sure you wont' accept.

On edit. If you want evidence, look at the draconian "deadbeat dad" laws that we now have. Fathers being charged with back child support for children they didn't even know they had. Fathers being reduced to check writers only, while not being allowed to see their children. Something like 78% of custody going to the mothers? Please. No one can tell me the mother is automatically the better parent 78% of the time. I've seen WAY too many instances to contradict that. For a father to get custody of his children the mother has to be a crack addict living out on the street prostituting herself and maybe, JUST maybe, he has a chance for custody although its still not guaranteed.

And I didn't answer you right away because I have a life.

of NOW and are promulgating their message?

m'kay. :eyes:

So before NOW started putting out this message (after their message "moved away from equal rights for women") in the mid to late 70s, the courts gave custody to fathers much more often?

of pissing contest here so I'll make it simple for you, "m'kay?" In the midst of being EXTREMELY involved with NOW I noticed a huge change in focus along about 1975. At the time, I was in close contact with NOW members all over the country. Due to several shifts (alimony being one of them) and in upper management within the NOW organization, the focus moved away from equal rights for women to bashing men. Many many heated arguments ensued and many dedicated people (men and women) left the organization because of it. The "deadbeat dad" meme was just one part of all that. In this case, the inference was that the only deadbeats out there were daddies and mommies got a pass. Bullshit. The focus SHOULD have been the best interests of the children but instead became about beating up on men.

What in the world is going on here?

If they hate men, dogs, police, pumpkin pie.

As long as they pull that level for a Democrat. I'm good!

sure didn't help Carol Moseley-Braun in 04.

hate their children?
