Women In The World - The Abortion Suit that Could Change History

Today: Fearless Actress Takes on Pakistan, Judge Scraps Landmark Military-Rape Case, Married with Amnesia Week of December 15, 2011 BATTLEGROUND 1. The Next Roe v. Wade? When Jennie Linn McCormack used an abortion pill to terminate her pregnancy, she wound up in jail. The 32-year-old unemployed mother of three lives in Idaho, where it is illegal for a woman to induce an abortion, so she enlisted her sister in Mississippi to order the pill on the Internet and mail it to her. When the police found out, she was arrested. The charges were later dropped, but her lawyer has filed a class-action lawsuit against Idaho—and says he is willing to take it to the Supreme Court.

Inside the pages of the magazine, Malik calls on Pakistan to put an end to extremism. Now, it seems, the extremists are after her, writes Muslim activist Asra Nomani.

Jesse Ellison reports. Read it at The Daily Beast TRIUMPH 4. Married With Amnesia What’s it like when your husband of nearly 25 years can’t remember you?

In a moving essay, Bolzan describes the unthinkable challenge of winning her husband’s love anew. Read it at The Daily Beast EXTREME 5.
