I believe there is still much to do to bring equality to all, and women in particular. I grew up seeing my intelligent, educated mother be expected to lead a dependent existence and be very frustrated about it. Even her own father did not believe that she should receive the type of education that would have led her to independence. While I see that many gains have been made, there are still many barriers that need to be addressed.P'tit-Louphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08771719017447343899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10112235.post-1137025384443572952006-01-11T16:23:00.000-08:002006-01-11T16:23:00.000-08:00My job for 23 years was an HR person who constantl...My job for 23 years was an HR person who constantly defended the rights of all employees, including women.<BR/><BR/>Common sense tells me to do the same thing, even though it's not my job.<BR/><BR/>So, maybe I'm a feminist.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12380165835261203465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10112235.post-1137007329744805482006-01-11T11:22:00.000-08:002006-01-11T11:22:00.000-08:00Feminism is a difficult issue for me.
