They kicked ass and so can we!
We all need to unite. Men and women alike! This is not just a women's issue! It will impact all of us. We need to speak up and lean forward. No going back ever!
VOTE NO TO ROSARIES ON OUR OVARIES!

And completely supportive of women's rights, this makes me uncomfortable. The Rosary is a very deep meditation and prayer for me, and it keeps me at peace. The Rosary is very, very sacred to us and it is the main part of my personal relationship with God. Please respect our reverence for this beautiful tradition. I am quite left wing, don't get me wrong, it's just.. this makes me uncomfortable. I thought Dems support religious tolerance, and political correctness. I respect all faiths whether it be Protestantism, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, non-belief, anything. I only ask the same, and please do not make a mockery of this sacred prayer.

...not that we were raving 17yr old misogynists, but some of the lines like "...don't put me on display.." resonated and made the next few years of Women's Liberation comprehensible.

Good to hear that Lesley is still around.
