150. I'd like to tear into your acquaintance...
...how utterly graceless!

Her actions were anything but constructive.

As a working woman and feminist, I have always hated it when people assume that I look down on stay-at-home moms (yes, it has happened). It's like people have this stereotype in their minds, not based on real people they have talked to but on some media mish-mash of "feminists / feminazis". And they think the stereotype is true because everyone else seems to think so too.

And then someone like your acquaintance comes along and just confirms all of the worst stereotypes.

GAAK!
