i LOVE your post sufrommich. it all needs to be shouted. i was not a part. i too was allowing dismissing these women. and was a huge ass wtf???? it was the point of a couple posters running raound the different forums calling three of us dworknnites to insult and shame and minimize us, that really woke me up. so a huge thank you to them.

i think we really need to start discussing what was accomplished, and what we are on the verge of losing.

i LOVE your post.
