ERA Transforms Rights for Men and Women Says Shana Alexander
Shana Alexander argues ERA applies to all, not women alone, saying equal rights would require all legislation to apply to both sexes and would place equal responsibility. She highlights state variations, notes Louisiana’s Napoleonic code linger, and cites Texas and California as progressive on community property and no fault divorce. The author, not a lawyer, collaborated with UCLA and Berkeley law scholars for her book Women's Legal Rights.
