1.) In 1998, if a woman was a victim of sexual discrimination she could sue.
True. Though not named as such, sexual harassment cases have been going back as far as the 1970's
2.) All-male public military schools must admit women to continue receiving public funding.
False.
3.) If a male wanted to go to a high school geared towards girls and a female wanted to go to a high school geared towards boys, then the schools would have to admit them.
False. Entry into secular schools is based on the individual criteria of the school, and they are not legally obliged to allow entry.
4.) If there are 10 women's sports teams in college and 9 male sports teams in the same college, then one of the women's sports teams will have to eliminated.
False. Despite pertaining to "sexual equality", it is not a requirement for a school to have the same number (or indeed, uneven numbers) of clubs or teams.
5.) As late as 1978, pregnant women could be denied a job or a promotion.
True. The practice is still, unfortunately, common these days. The law states that current employees are allowed medical benefits akin to sick leave whilst on maternity leave, but there are no laws in place to prevent that person being denied a job or promotion because of being pregnant.
6.) One of the primary anti-feminists was a female.
True. I believe this question may be referring to Phyllis Schlafly.
7.) As recently as 1994, the wanted ads in the newspaper were segregated by gender.
No idea about this one. I'm going out on a limb and saying False.
8.) About 30 years ago, if you were a married woman, your husband could legally rape you.
True, though it's worth mentioning many countries/states in America didn't enforce spousal rape as a crime until the last decade, and in some cases classified it as a minor crime akin to pickpocketing.
