Re: In defence!

Hi Mother!

Yes I'm having problems with a foggy head so it takes longer to reply to messages which require more thought ;)

I've never heard of Dr Toni Grant or at least not that I can remember. Thanks for sharing her ideas. Yes it would be interesting to hear or read more of what she says.

Yes that was part of what I was saying...that feminists aren't all the same in terms of their experiences or their aims even.

Yes women have throughout history abused other women, usually that will have a lot to do with class or race relations for example. I didn't mean to suggest women are totally innocent or anything...I just meant oppression arises out of oppression.

I don't think feminism alone should be responsible for women achieving respect....I think that should be the aim of any humanist society. If women are still not respected I don't think that can be solely laid at the door of feminism.

Hope you're well and strong :)

Anne
