No Pulse....Alive and Well?
I was woken up this morning by the phone,said what I had to and hung up. I came out to the kitchen and made that first yummy cup of coffee and savored the taste. Coffee is one of lifes indulgences that both yang and I wallow in.but I digress. As I was sipping my coffee and I was listening to the silence, a question came to mind about something I haven't given a whole lot of thought to since my early twenties.
I was thinking about feminism, is the movement still alive and well? I'm really curious how it is seen these days in your part of the country. It seems from my recollection of the 70's, that the voices of feminists were loud and strident and many bordered on being militant. Some twenty something years later, I haven't heard those voices, they seem to be quiet.
Has the movement changed tactics? Are they now quietly working towards the same goals? Do the younger ones buy into the thinking as if it is a normal part of their social structure? Or is it a concsious effort on their part to fight against the undercurrents of being treated inequal(sp?) Did all those militant voices dilute the message and grow up and forget about it? Was it just a fad?
