This is a good post. Kate Moss's ""nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" on her web site certainly was inappropriate. It encourages young girls to become anorexsic just be be a stick figure like Kate Moss.

It's sad to see older women living on the financial edge. Many times they've worked hard but never could quite put enough away, trapped in low paying jobs. She's right about taking business courses and getting an education. The world is filled with frogs. There are very few Prince Charmings around.

Yes, I am, too. I read this many years ago.
With the non-partisan New Agenda now, maybe feminists can get back to business and forget the bickering.

I've been married to a feminist for 30 years. She doesn't wear a badge, just goes about her life encouraging young women to be all that they can be. I've certainly never felt threatened by her and doubt that most of the men she knows even realize she's a feminist. Go for it ladies!
 

Jersey GiacomelliJul 8

Those unhappy with their own lives are the ones that worry about feminists. We are usually gentle souls who don't collect body parts.
 

Mary Byrnes ConleeJun 26

Me too. When I drop the F bomb, men usually head for the hills.
 

Rose ToresonJun 25

You mean we're not all crazies? That bursts my bubble.

With domestic violence such a problem all over the world, this is a timely topic. If you know someone who is in a dangerous relationship, please share this information. The original site it came from is also interesting. Kathryn lived through the horror for many years and survived to help others. Thank you for this post.

This is useful information for any woman planning to escape an abusive relationship. Planning ahead may save her life.

Thanks for the post on protecting petsw during domestic violence situations. I'm trying to find more about Susan Walsh now. She sounds like a lady willing to put her heart on the line for animals.
