Ginsburg called for the sex-integration of [[prison]]s and reformatories so that conditions of imprisonment, security and housing could be equal. She explained, "If the grand design of such institutions is to prepare inmates for return to the community as persons equipped to benefit from and contribute to civil society, then perpetuation of single-sex institutions should be rejected." (101) She called for the sex-integration of [[Boy Scouts]] and [[Girl Scouts]] because they "perpetuate stereotyped sex roles." (145) She insisted on sex-integrating "college [[fraternity]] and [[sorority]] chapters" and replacing them with "college
social societies." (169) She even cast constitutional Constitutional doubt on the legality of "[[Mother's Day]] and [[Father's Day]] as separate holidays." (146)
Ginsburg called for reducing the age of consent for sexual acts to persons who are "less than 12 years old." (102) She asserted that laws against "[[bigamy |bigamist]]s, persons cohabiting with more than one woman, and women cohabiting with a bigamist" are unconstitutional. (195) She objected to laws against [[prostitution]] because "prostitution, as a consensual act between adults, is arguably within the zone of privacy protected by recent constitutional decisions." (97) Ginsburg wrote that the [[Mann Act]] (which punishes those who engage in interstate sex
An indefatigable censor, Ginsburg listed hundreds of "sexist" words that must be eliminated from all statutes. Among words she found offensive were: man, woman, manmade, mankind, husband, wife, mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter,
serviceman, longshoreman, postmaster, watchman, seamanship, and "to man" (a vessel), even though most of these words with the ''-man'' suffix date back to Middle English in which it meant "human" and not specifically "male". (15-16) She even wanted he, she, him, her, his, and hers to be dropped down the Memory Hole. They must be replaced by he/she, her/him, and hers/his, and federal statutes must use the bad grammar of "plural constructions toavoid third person singular pronouns." (52-53)
The only high court challenge to the government take over of automotive companies came by a one-day inquiry by Justice Ginsburg. She decided against pursuing and let [[Italian]] automaker Fiat acquire a majority stake in [[U.S.]] company [[Chrysler]]. <ref>[http://content.usatoday.com/topics/article/People/Politicians,+Government+Officials,+Strategists/Judges/Ruth+Bader+Ginsburg/0d19csb5kA1JG/1 Ruth Bader Ginsburg Fiat automotive] USATODAY, June 22, 2009</ref>
Not in recent memory has a Supreme Court Justice ever endorsed another Justice for the lifetime appointment. Justice Ginsburg has publicly stated her overwhelming approval of [[Sonia Sotomayor]]. <ref>[http://voices.washingtonpost.com/supreme-court/2009/06/ginsburg_endorses_sotomayor_di.html Ginsburg Backs Sotomayor, Discusses End of Session] Washington Post, June 15, 2009</ref>
==Roe v Wade==
Ginsberg has stated that she hoped the 1973 Roe. v. Wade case would eliminate undesirable members of the populace, or as she put it "populations that we don't want to have too many of." She also sees abortion as a method of population control. <ref>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2288545/posts?page=221</ref><ref>http://www.conservatives4palin.com/2009/07/justice-ginsburg-on-roe-v-wade.html</ref>
 
While shocking, such ideas are hardly new: similar views were endorsed by [[Eugenics|eugenicist]] [[Margaret Sanger]], the founder of [[Planned Parenthood]] years ago.
==Cancer==
Ginsburg has the most sever severe form of cancer; [[pancreatic cancer]]. She has obtained surgery to prolong her life.
