9. There are many men who also support the cause

I have a problem with sexism from both sides. The only reason why I wasn't standing next to my sisters tonight is that I have no car to take me to Lansing.
I would have given a significant portion of my $1K monthly social security to be on those steps. Alas, I just don't have the resources. Suffice it to say. We are unequivocally with you. And we thank all the people who served as surrogates for those of us who would stand at your sides if we were able.  |
