- Assuming for the moment that Andrea Dworkin's suggestions are
- clueless, inappropriate, and nonsensical (and it's been my experience
- that feminists who are perceived to be such are usually maligned by a
- hysterical, incredibly myopic media) it wouldn't invalidate my quote.
- Look up each word in the dictionary -- which should be the big thick
- book in your bookcase next to Curious George -- and demonstrate to
- yourself why that is so.
