[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't anyone here old enough to remember Marilyn French's feminist novel The Women's Room? The cover had a sign saying "Ladies Room," and ladies was crossed out to say women's. And how often do we use a public restrooms that are labeled "ladies" anymore? So something's changed in the 35 years since the book came out. To me, ladies still sounds somewhat demeaning. I prefer women. And anyone over 18 should be a woman, not a girl, although when I was in my early 20s my friend and I coined "womenettes."[/quote] Ugh baby boomer feminists couldn't go away quick enough. I am glad we are now about being feminnim rather than feminist.[/quote] Well [b]bless your heart[/b].[/quote] :D [/quote]
