Btw - this idea is really a fundamental problem with our current politics. The whole idea of the Constitution is to provide a stable grant of sovereignty that isn't up for constant modification. If every single election is a referendum on the foundational nature of our government, if every election risks nominating judges who are allowed to make radical 'living' changes to the meaning of the Constitution, well - then we're doomed to vicious political struggles with every single election.
Which, is what we've been seeing, isn't it?
Your wishes are dust unless you can propose a viable way to disallow judges from doing what you describe in the bolded.
The first means available to us is to stop electing politicians who will nominate judges of this bent. Which means building consensus that changing the Constitution without real amendments is a bad idea.
Good luck convincing Americans that the Constitution doesn't assure women of equal rights.
