59. Yes, your "tone"...
Edited on Sun Mar-15-09 03:25 PM by Zuiderelle
The "common enemy" may indeed be the hierarchy set up for male dominance, but straight women and even feminist straight women can be just as much an enemy to this proposed group of Priyanka's, so it's not really about fighting a common enemy and standing in solidarity with you. All of the women here are WOMEN, and many of us identify as feminists, as well as do many of the men here, and you're insinuating that we aren't already IN solidarity with you. To suggest that we shouldn't want a group that focuses on a narrower issue than your "common enemy" so that we can concentrate on being part of YOUR group is condescending.

I understand why she is proposing the group and I think it makes a lot of sense. (And after your comments here, I'm completely convinced that such a group is necessary.) Why on earth would you come into THIS forum and write what you wrote?
