"Why do the standards of justice utilize male norms and definitions? ... we must move away from the idea that *equal* means being equal to men..." (27-28)

first 15 pages deal with historical legal and social context in the united states aka my bread and butter. also the previous reader(s) highlighted and underlined passages, so those are stories in themselves. at least with this first chapter (not finished yet, so take with a grain of salt), i wish there was more analysis confronting race and class rather than a general "[white middle/upper-class] women's history"
