1. I agree that male conversation has inappropriately dominated the list.
2. With that said - Laura, your comments today are making me uncomfortable and feel hostile to me.
If this degenerates into a hyper-versus-male-feminist debate we're all losing.
If other women here feel that there's a consensus that Laura is speaking the truth as you say it, perhaps it is time for another list.
If not, can we go back to my question on the other thread as to the differing problems before us - whether I've identified and delineated in a correct and useful manner, and what to do about the differing nature of those problems / discussions - and attempt to find a solution that's productive for everyone?
