If the preponderance of women report that things are a certain way, then it would behoove men to fucking listen.
Or stop fucking, and listen, depending on the "conversation!"
This reminds me of talks I've had with people about reparations for slavery. Generally speaking, African-Americans are receptive to the idea, while others tend to be comically uninformed yet outspokenly opposed!
Richard at TEM does a nice job getting at the analogous tendency between men and women, even excavating the priceless "anti-male feminism" from an educated audience in the process.

I'm not sure when you left your comments, but for Jewish radicalism I know Paul Avrich has written on it, but my perspective on reading people like Bookchin, Chomsky, Goldman, Zinn, etc. Also from understanding the transformations of people like Betty Friedan. And thanks, I dig you blog as well, especially since you post way more often.
Thanks! Interesting to hear about Friedan, as I am reading an account of the second wave...
