With Love, Feminism
This is the most beautiful piece ever written:
LA Times Opinion Column – Palin: Wrong Woman, Wrong Message by Gloria Steinem
It was written by Gloria Steinem, who besides being one of my idols, managed to say exactly what I have been trying to say for the past few weeks. So I’ll let her say it:
Feminism has never been about getting a job for one woman. It’s about making life more fair for women everywhere. It’s not about a piece of the existing pie; there are too many of us for that. It’s about baking a new pie.
And, my favorite:
Gloria Steinem is an author, feminist organizer and co-founder of the Women’s Media Center. She supported Hillary Clinton and is now supporting Barack Obama.

Gloria Steinem = my hero. For reals.
