15. None of the women I know feel they are expected to participate in anything they don't

want to participate in. We have tools, thanks to the administration, to make anything we don't want to read or see completely disappear. Why is that so hard? If people just did that, these threads would drop like stones and disappear all by themselves. I don't understand why people insist on kicking them, making them the most viewed posts on DU.

I will be writing about Women's Rights around the world when I get a chance over the next few weeks. I hope the topic generates as much interest as the cover of SI, because what I am researching right now should cause women AND men everywhere to be appalled. But frankly I'll be surprised if those claiming outrage over this, will even bother to read about what is going on with women who have zero choices, zero power. They never do generate much interest, topics on the plight of women victims of our policies. Certainly not here on DU.
