The ACLU, Abortion and Women's (Men's?) Rights

Anonymous User writes "Here is an interesting article. Lots of information regarding the history of abortion and the ACLU's influence on the issue. One line that caught my attention is attributed to attorney Harriet Pilpel at a 1964 ACLU conference. "She asked: Does it not unconstitutionally deny a woman life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, for example, if despite her wishes and the opinions of concurring doctors she is forced to bear a child she doesn't want and, objectively, shouldn't have?" Why didn't anyone in the ACLU consider replacing the gender in that sentence or making it gender neutral?"Source: The Human Life Review [magazine]
