6. Whoever said women hate other women, was thinking of Phyllis Schlafly.

I remember being "impressed" by her downright deviousness when, in college, I read that she took credit at some point for defeating the ERA by fooling enough women into thinking that, if it passed, they'd never get anything in a divorce.

I hope it taught the progressive community to never underestimate the power of sophistry to turn public opinion. And Phyllis took to it like a pig to the mud.

That might explain her very good complexion for her age (I bet Marco asked her for tips).
