This at the crux of my thoughts lately. I just don't feel like I'm ready for the 'manifesto,' yet.

And I started a new job today so I'm more distracted than usual.

But I've been wondering how the progression of women's rights has perhaps, in one way, backfired on us and made our aspect, at the least, more vulnerable than ever. I think it's an interesting idea...
