67. When I graduated from one of the last independent, all-women's colleges,
I experienced culture shock. For four years, I was trained to be independent, sure of what I was doing, and not dependent upon men to "help" me. Everything changed. When I was in law school and tried to participate in lectures like college, got the answer when nobody else did, in response from the back rows of male compatriots, I was given a derisive "Ooooooooooooooooooooo!" To this day, I feel like Eliza Doolittle returned to the flower market.
