"Our Bodies, Our Souls". (Briefly Mentioned).Naomi Wolf Naomi Wolf (born November 12, 1962) is an American writer. At a relatively young age, she became literary star of what was later described as the 'third-wave' of the feminist movement and she is also known for her advocacy of progressive politics. The New Republic, October 16, 1995 Naomi Wolf questions the party line on abortion advocacy for feminists. While still clearly maintaining a "pro-choice" position, she considers many of the arguments that pro-life pro-life Pro-choice, see there feminists have made and finds merit in them. She proposes that the "pro-choice" argument would be strengthened by being honest and facing these problems. She makes many thoughtful points, but her conclusions rely on acceptance of violence as a solution for problems. She seems unaware of the Catch-22 she has proposed: if the problems must be faced rather than avoided, then that also weakens the "pro-choice" argument.
