History/details:
The Equal Rights Amendment, formulated as early as 1923 by the National Women's Party, proposed that "equality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." Feminist groups in the 1960s and 1970s, such as the National Organization for Women, finally succeeded in getting Congress to pass the Equal Rights Amendment as a proposed addition to the US Constitution. It was passed by Congress and sent to the states for ratification in 1972.
The National Organization for Women continued to be a leading voice in pushing for ratification for the amendment. However, conservative groups, especially led by a woman named Phyllis Schlafly, campaigned against ratification. A key point Schlafly focused on was that women would then be subject to military draft and military combat service in the same way as men. This became the key issue and the Equal Rights Amendment failed to achieve the necessary number of states supporting ratification.
Answer:
The USSR (Soviet Union) lost the Cold War due to a couple of reasons:
1) Economic stance: The Command Economy created by Karl Marx, and used by the USSR & other communist countries, only work when implemented correctly, and in which no politician is trying to push their own agenda. Of course, this does not work in real life, and so the Command Economy was bound to fall apart soon.
2) Military stance: The USSR was able to help support many other communist countries, but they failed to take account that the US would also do the same. They suffered many defeats & failures, including the failure of taking the Korean Peninsula, the failure to stomp out the rebellion of Afghanistan, etc. These led to the destruction of the military, and the weakening of the USSR.
3) Political Stance: The USSR was built as a Totalitarian Government in the guise of giving the people more equal power (They get equal power, which is no power). This creates a strong arm government, however, when the leader dies/replaced, the change could be extremely different, and can lead to the destruction of the current government, and even the current government structure. The Totalitarian Government does not take this into account, and is why it would generally fail within one or two leaders.
