- You are mistaken. I attended the exhibition of The Dinner Party twice while
- it was in Chicago. While The Dinner Party was primarally by and about women,
- it is not a particularly good example of seperatism. Men are listed among
- the artists who contributed to its creation. I found nothing of a divisive
- or exclusionary spirit associated with any part of it, only a celebration
- of women's history.
