Why did the equal rights amendment fail to pass?

The equal rights amendment failed to pass because it was not ratified by enough states by the deadline it was given to become a constitutional amendment. Also the arguments were given that it would have been pointless, because it supposedly would not have provided women with any more rights than they already have under the Constitution. And that its passage would have had far-reaching implications, ruining traditional distinctions between the sexes. According to this criticism, women would have been required to register for the draft and would have to serve the country, just as men must. Also according to this criticism, the ERA would have removed legislatures that specially protect women, such as labor laws in heavy industry. Some women in the 1970s feared that passage of the ERA would prevent them from being favored for alimony and custody in cases of divorce. be eligible for the military draft. (Apex)
