      Rund 20 Jahre ist es her, dass der damalige Kanzler Gerhard Schröder, Frauenpolitik als „Gedöns“ bezeichnete. Er dockte direkt an die Verachtung für die Frauenbewegung an, die den Kampf um Gleichberechtigung als lilagewandete Überspanntheit lächerlich machte.
      It was around 20 years ago that then Chancellor Gerhard Schröder described women’s politics as “nonsense”. He connected directly to the contempt for the women’s movement, which ridiculed the fight for equality as a purple-clad exaggeration.
