(6,342 posts)Issues like abortion, for example, where even women can't seem to agree. I don't remember the organization that did it but there was poll recently where 60% of WOMEN believed abortion should be banned after a certain week of the pregnancy. And Gallup has been tracking women who are "pro-life" and "pro-choice" for decades and found among WOMEN, it has always been very divided.
If feminism makes pro-choice the top of their agenda, then every anti-abortion woman is going to rebel against the movement.
Not suggesting you should change anything on the issue of abortion, by the way. That might cause even further harm. Im just pointing out an example of how divisive issues like this can shatter a movement.
I remember earlier this year, Justice Ginsberg was making a similar argument in a discussion forum and mentioned that she wished Roe v Wade wasn't as broad. She thinks it halted feminist momentum and would have been better if the issue was resolved through the democratic process.
