Equal rights is an undefined, ambiguous term that means different things to different people, depending on the context. The term was used by promoters of a gender-neutral society when they invented the name "Equal Rights Amendment", a name that was never part of the proposed amendment.
A proper use of the term equal rights is in complaining about unlawful discrimination by government.
