Summary
Badge, made by Patrick Brothers, with the popular early 1970s Women's Movement slogan 'Women who Strive to be Equal with Men Lack Ambition'. The slogan infers that there is more to women's rights and equality than becoming equal to men. Some in the women's movement argued that a woman's uniqueness, rather than her similarity to men, should be acknowledged.
