....Blows are being dealt to the fight for women’s rights today by middle-class liberals, who claim that human beings are not born male or female, but can choose to be whatever sex they like. They deny the fact that in class society women are an oppressed sex, and they seek to erase the history of hard-fought battles for women’s emancipation. And they harass and try to silence anyone who speaks out against their anti-scientific views.
The fact is anti-women prejudices are declining among working people. This increases prospects that efforts by the bosses to pit women and men against each other, the better to exploit both, can be defeated in unified struggle. The historic fight to end the oppression of women — rooted in class society — and all forms of discrimination can only be carried through to the end by the working class taking political power.
