Kevin Glass (Franklin Center for Government and Public Integrity) and Cathy Reisenwitz (Sex and the State, cathyreisenwitz.com)

On Rational Actors, Kevin talks to Cathy about her efforts to synthesize feminism and libertarianism. Can libertarian economic policies help change gendered expectations for women?

Turning to Ken Cuccinelli‘s recent defeat in Virginia, they consider why married and unmarried women vote so differently. How can the GOP reform itself to be more appealing to women in general?
