Not the boring (to me) shit about the history of feminism or whatever, but I've learned about new ways to look at things, and you've given me new ideas to think about.<BR/><BR/>There is nothing I like more than someone or something that gets me thinking. If you're one of those people who is all, "If I reach just one person, it will all have been worth it," then hi, I'm your one person.<BR/><BR/>And if you're not, then I will just ask that you keep writing, and let me know where, so I can keep reading.<BR/><BR/>Maybe your conference needs to address the hostility angle - more than just saying "Please express your views respectfully" - by detailing how delivery of a message affects whether or not a message will be heard at all.Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931380770342598889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20435429.post-41099213044410762522008-06-27T20:55:00.000-05:002008-06-27T20:55:00.000-05:00Thanks, Danielle and Andi and Daisy.

You are also open to listening to all sides in any argument - and often you can see merit in more than one way of thinking. The world needs more of that. Hang in and let me know where you start blogging again - please.andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07193493687484232494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20435429.post-11415727656912259532008-06-26T13:31:00.000-05:002008-06-26T13:31:00.000-05:00I know how you feel.

But it extends over into blogland, where I see the same behaviors.<BR/><BR/>Bobvis,<BR/>I don't know what I will do (I appreciate the support). I may try changing the focus of the blog, or I may try blogging under my own name, which at least will force me to be more accountable than I've probably been. But first, I think I will need a break.Plain(s)feministhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15056404699624958898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20435429.post-38955165975630081232008-06-26T09:42:00.000-05:002008-06-26T09:42:00.000-05:00But it feels like I just got here!I'll be sad to s...But it feels like I just got here!<BR/><BR/>I'll be sad to see you stop blogging.
