Introduction
The book is about how gender "equality" is pushed in legislation, but misogyny (the overempowerment/overentitlement of men) is still present in the legal system.
The intro goes through the history of different movements that provided legal independence for women. For example, the Mutterschutz League, which advocated for policies to provide maternity benefits/insurance for married and unmarried moms

Super interesting. argues the neutral language changes from Michael M. v. Superior Court in CA statutory rape law discourages female victims to report bc they may deemed liable, bc it was originally written in gendered language to protect girls.
