A. Some existing laws are prejudiced against men. Everyone should be equally responsible for defending the country and supporting children.
Read the excerpt from "For the ERA"
Sex prejudice cuts both ways. Men are oppressed by
the requirements of the Selective Service Act, by
enforced legal guardianship of minors, and by alimony
laws. Each sex, I believe, should be liable when
necessary to serve and defend this country. Each has a
responsibility for the support of children.
Which best summarizes the excerpt?
A. Some existing laws are prejudiced against men.
Everyone should be equally responsible for
defending the country and supporting children.
B. I believe men experience oppression based on their
sex as much as women do, and I want to be clear
that all sex prejudice must end.

divorce cases, women are given custody, while men
must pay alimony and serve in the military.
D. Men are oppressed by divorce laws that give
custody of children to women, as well as by the
Selective Service Act.
