At least, gender equality and what the term has been made to be in contemporary discussions about gender, immigrants and the rights of all minorities. Yeah, I know, too many intersections and variables that certainly do not lead to an easy answer. However, I did come across one point where all these variables seem to intersect: capitalism. The discussion has been hijacked by market forces. To be equal in today\u2019s world means to participate in market transactions. We even frame the discussions in ways that highlight the necessity for market insertion: immigrants should have the right to work, women should have access to corporate boards, the glass ceiling, etc. It\u2019s all about the \u201cright to produce in a capitalist society\u201d. Even the current attacks on reproductive rights seem to be shaped by \u201cproductive rights\u201d: budgets, expenditures, \u201cfree\u201d or \u201cpaid\u201d contraception, etc.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class='attribution'><a href=\"http:\/\/tigerbeatdown.com\/2011\/04\/28\/what-does-equality-mean-these-days\/\">Marxist theory!
