94. Grass Roots Implementation
The success of political movements depends on grass roots implementation. If it doesn't happen there, it doesn't happen at all. Feminism lost momentum when they ran out of ideas that were relevant to people's lives.

Yes, women should have options. But taking certain options closes off some others. If you want to be a big success in business, go to MBA school and work hard. However .... the people who do this give up an important part of themselves.

Career women turned into a third gender. When this was a new phenomenon, they were interesting. But now, they're just as boring as other business geeks. A lot of women don't want to end up like that, so they don't take that option. It would be nice if career people weren't boring, but I am not interested in discussing the forecast of 3rd quarter widget sales.
