Reply #14: Well, there was no chance of that

considering I was raised by a female engineer whose earliest childhood memory was of a Sufragette parade in NYC with her mother and grandmother.

However, I can easily see myself being horribly discontented with a nice girl role and wondering why my life was so godawful unfulfilling and why on earth I couldn't have been satisfied living with an alcoholic and being his full time maid while working outside the home, since it was my biological destiny to be just that and only that.

I'd think intelligent women who aren't feminists either turn to Valium and/or alcohol or just go quietly bonkers and start having the furniture talk back to them. I certainly haven't met any healthy, intelligent nonfeminist women, ever. And I've moved a lot.
