This is uninformed advice that does not work. Look at the facts. Equality Poll, conducted by Louis Harris and Peter Harris Research Group for the Feminist Majority Foundation, found strong support for feminism and for the feminist movement. Subsequent national polls show even less support for Speaker Gingrich. Seventy-one percent of respondents in the 1995 poll favor the movement to strengthen women s rights.
Young people are the strongest part of the feminist movement.
Sixty-two percent of all women said they feel that feminists have been helpful to women. The 1989 poll also found strong support for the feminist movement among young women. So more people identify themselves as feminists or women s rights supporters than as Republican, Democrat, liberal or conservative. Over the years, from 1970 to 1980 s, support for the women s movement went from a bare plurality to a solid majority. Feminist issues also have majority support.
