Feminists have won? Why didn't anyone tell me?? Huzzah! What a relief to be able to walk the safe streets, marry or not the person of my choice w/ all legal protections therein, raise my children in a peace-filled world, cherish my (and others') personal sovereignty and physical integrity, make dollar-for-dollar what a man makes, and never again have to witness the dehumanization of one half of the human race for the titillation of the other half. I'm off now to send my heartfelt thanks to all 52 female Senators now. Thanks for the heads up!
P.S. criticalobserver, you may need to rethink your moniker if you are reading "supremacist," "victim," "raving," and "harridan" in Diane's post. Next flight, you should check your baggage. ;->
