- alan@auntbea.austin.ibm.com (Alan R. Weiss) demonstrates most
- clearly that he is incapable of any but the most simplistic levels
- of thought.
-
- He cannot imagine that I might do anything that is not my job, or
- that participants in a movement might happen to undertake a job
- that isn't a necessary one, or that there can be a movement that
- encompasses a wide range of views.
-
- We had one bozo here who said-- and I quote:
- >>>I can't *see* the point of feminism if it isn't to clue in the type
- >>>of person I used to be, and then to continue educating the type of
- >>>person I've become.
-
- Jess said it many articles ago: Feminism is not about men, it's
- about women. Smart men, who understand why there is feminism and
- agree with its principles, find ways of educating themselves.
- I'm not holding my breath on this one.
