Xena, thanks so much for this response to Straughan.
I recently was reading posts on a TedX talk by a woman who clearly doesn't get feminism.

This TedX speaker was feeding the feminist haters club and Karen Straughan's name was brought up several times in the follow-up replies. I'd never heard of her and listened to a video of her....arghhhhh ..it was so frustrating/maddening and this really made me appreciate finding XenaAmazon.
Thank you much Xena...keep it comin'. You so get it and it worries me how popular the feminist-haters groups have become. I recently read a wonderful article in WMC WOMEN UNDER SEIGE
online and wanted to share it. I can't get enough of these smart writings.
I'm living in Florida and find it very stressful after living most of my 79 years in Baltimore, a diverse city I love.
Hope you find this as interesting as I did if you haven't already read it.
Also, I've been involved with a pretty decent group called Humanists of the Treasure Coast and gave a talk on a new terrific book by Jack Holland, an Irish writer called " A Brief History of Misogyny, The World's Oldest Prejudice" and I highly recommend it to women and men. patricia winchild
