Flint's selective outrage at the outrage is outrageous. OUTRAGEOUS!!!1!!

See, jill, some in the Cellar like the women to be SEEN and not HEARD.

Wow. This is an excellent post and really has me re-thinking a LOT of my interaction and communication techniques/habits. I'm not saying this in relation to anyone in specific, but just how I, as a female raised largely in the 70's of Ameria, feel she MUST tailor/stifle herself to even be considered to be HEARD.
This was an ah - ha moment for me - one of many that I've recently had/been able to make a connection.

Thank you, Infinite Monkey. I feel a bit different today because of your post.
