I didn't make that comment as an attack but as an explanation as to why it
is so difficult to pin down feminism.

'Tis true. There are Roman Catholics here in Chicago who are very outspoken
about their views about abortion (they're very, very against it); yet, they
also proudly call themselves feminists. Do you want the name of their
parish? Incidentally, I did mention in my earlier post that that position
was an extreme one. I didn't claim it to be typical. I was just pointing out
the range of beliefs that are called feminist nowadays.

Comradely,

Cherie Pleau
