Notes

1. For a full accounting of the idea ‘new-old’ see Eisenstein Citation1998.

2. Also see the rest of the New York Times Magazine 18 August 2009, in which the Landler article is found for many discussions of women's rights as the major cause of this time.

3. The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws in the United States; they were enacted between 1876 and 1965 and mandated racial segregation in all public facilities.

4. See especially chapters 1 and 2 of Sexual Decoys, Gender, Race and War in Imperial Democracy, for a full discussion of my use of the term ‘sexual decoy’ (Eisenstein Citation2007).

5. Although this has been a central query for feminist theory for over two decades now, I particularly wish to address this issue in terms of its relevance for my viewing of sex and gender decoys.

6. This makes me think of bell hooks' Feminism is for Everybody (Citation2000).

7. Title IX was a 1972 amendment to the US Civil Rights Act 1962, which extended it to prohibited sex-based discrimination in educational programs and activities receiving federal assistance. This paved the way for greater inclusion of women in college athletics programs.
