U.N Activities on CEDAW

We could all agree that CEDAW has no reason to exist, but then again, it DOES exist and the U.S. needs to pay attention. In the world of women's rights, I'm afraid the world, lead by the women of the European Union, is against us. Mighty steep odds, I'd say. I guess they better go get help!! :-)"

NGS'a (Score:2) by frank h on Friday April 05, @03:44PM EST (#2) (User #141 Info) One thing to note in this article is the reference to NGA's. NGA's are "non-government agencies" and in this case, it would appear that the only NGA's being represented here are women's groups. It's a money thing, I know, but it would be nice of there was a man's NGA showing up there. Frank
