Then again, some of us here nearly got sent to Viet Nam... Well, some of us male readers anyway. I very rarely post my thoughts here, because I see it primarily as a space for women to share their views, and I’m satisfied to be an audience member. But here goes...

The nakedly political tenor of this comment reminds me of nothing more than the crazy-quilt of intersectional feminism that states that you aren’t a real feminist unless you’re an anti-zionist reparations supporter liberal democrat pronoun waver and also support men in women’s sports and showers (and those are just starting points!). I thought that’s what GC old-school feminists were trying to fight back against. There will certainly be myriad viewpoints on the State of Israel, on human rights abuses in Africa, on the sensibility of WoLF getting in bed with the right wing... etc, etc,. But it’s a little off-putting to get lectured at by someone who’s so mature and experienced that nobody else can keep up with her. Some readers here are well into their sixties, read several newspapers every day, are old lefty hippies who have never voted for a republican,... and still may not agree with you on a number of issues. I’m sticking with simple biology and the 70s feminism I was brought up around on this front.
