With all their talk of equality, and claims they're being oppressed, it would seem to make a lot of sense for Feminists to call for the ERA again. It was last debated nationally over 30 years ago. Our society has changed quite a bit since then. On the surface, it seems like a no-brainer. So, why not?

My opinion- I think most women know they have a better deal and they don't want the debate over an ERA to jeopardize their privilege. Secondly, Feminists don't want the embarrassment of a majority of women rising up and protesting against equal rights for women.

EDIT for clarification: Lobby, meaning that they throw a lot of money and legwork into its passage. Make it a news item, drum up support, run awareness campaigns, etc.
