The article discusses the Supreme Court's controversial 2022 decision to overrule Roe v. Wade, likening it to a societal regression akin to the themes expressed in the Barbie movie. It argues the ruling exemplifies how the Court has integrated feelings and politics into constitutional law, driven by patriarchal motivations. This decision not only threatens women's reproductive rights but also reflects a broader gender counterrevolution, with roots in anti-feminist sentiments that resurfaced during the feminist movement's rise. Overall, it presents a bleak outlook on the future of women's status as free citizens under current legal dynamics.
The Dobbs v. Jackson decision is a symptomatic example of how feelings, particularly those stemming from patriarchal grievances, have influenced constitutional law.
The ruling on Roe v. Wade marked just the beginning of intensified battles over women's rights, reshaped by political strategies aligned with anti-feminist sentiments.
