It is harder for a woman than for a man to get out of a marriage that has gone wrong, and most women whose marriages break down are left to bring up children on their own with little or no support. On top of that, many women are trapped in their homes by violence or the threat of it. Only a society that insists that the family is 'private', and that women belong to the men they marry as if they were pieces of property, whatever the law now says. In rape, women are exposed to a kind of violence which men don't face, perhaps the most humiliating of all. In our society, women don't have equality, they don't have freedom, they don't even have respect in any meaningful sense.
Women have to be able to fight back, for themselves and for the future of all women.
Women have a right to organise with men to fight against the society that keeps us all down, to make men see that the world has to be changed. They want women not to think about what is wrong with the world and, even more, not to do anything about it. They want strikers' wives to nag them to go back to work, not to support them like the miners' wives. They want women as a cheap labour force too, handicapped by household cares and discouraged from fighting for equality. For too long the struggle against this society has been divided, not by feminism but by men, who have seen the labour movement as purely a male concern.
