Yael. Hello. Excellent, EXCELLENT essay. I almost highlighted the whole thing, hell, I should go back and highlight the 5 sentences I missed!( missed only because my iPad isn’t the best in the underline dept.)
I agree with every point and the last part above…oh yeah.
It has become like this uncontrollable twitch. Trying to speak out and fix this mess thrown at women requires an instant apology or qualifier. As though we have say: You need to listen to me, the way women are treated is just plain wrong and counter productive on all levels and yes, criminal. But please know, I don’t say this because I hate men. Quite the contrary. I live with a fine one. So please listen to me…
Ugh.
Yael, to all your points, I too am sick of this. Yet I won’t stop. We have to fix it.
