You are right that the early leaders of feminism rejected abortion. However, with respect to the movement to which Shelray refers, the term "radical" associated with feminism first arises in the 1960s with the so called "second wave" feminism. Free access to abortion has always been one of the tenets of the radical movement. Todd – I think that the adjective “radical” is important here.

Not always. Up until the late 60's, feminists opposed abortion and it was the Republicans, under the influence of profitmongers in the medical profession, who advocated the decriminalization of abortion. “The radical feminist movement has always defended abortion as THE guarantee of a women’s freedom from oppression and equality with men.”

It seems to me that they cannot even convince themselves that their feminista priests are doing anything more than play-acting.
