Do it for all of the women out there who have been frightened, shamed and brainwashed to accept second class citizen status.

May they all find their voices.

In the last month but not about women's rights. Be interesting to see what would happen there.

Love you women!

As I said - "I'll set aside my gender loyalties and my complaints about relationship heartaches and disappointments."

And I'll admit, I've seen times when I was off the hook with pain and confusion over women who were or weren't in my life. When I wanted to lash out and inflict upon others the pain I was feeling.

I guess we've all been there.

But there are bigger things happening right now.

We're not rivals. We are partners.

great progressive environment in so many ways, yet shows clearly, for anyone willing ot see, the very undercurrent of the instilled misogyny in our culture and world. it is the micro of the macro. we are experiencing it. call it. discuss it. understand it. acknowledge it. it has been a wonderful experience for me to practice, real world application in woman's voice.

shame?

embarrassment?

i guess what i am saying is, this should be expected. why would we expect any less. lack of rules, chaos, the majority controlling the environment. why would it NOT regress to this? as a democrat, we KNOW, the minority need the protection from the majority.

skinner went free speech and allowing majority to dictate.

that would be the republican way, if we were honest.

i see it more as a thank you so much, for the experience, so i may be educated, and our ways validated.
