Well, I hope (sincerely) that your are right, Karen

But women do have a special problem not shared by men. There is no such thing like "masculinists" that I know of, so there is no radical masculinism as such. Misogyny is alive and well, but not nearly as formalized. I think what I have said is paralleled in the African-American case. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson scare an awful lot of people of all genders (g). Yet I think Colin Powell could be elected president in a heartbeat, possibly now more than ever. In any case, I think that even an old f--t like myself will live to see the day when we find out about a woman president one way or the other.

pretty much this whole thread had a problem with radical feminists

I'll take your word for that, Karen, as I'm not that deep into the culture here.

However, if a woman does run against a man for president, and says in her campaign speech, To be really fair there ought to be at least 100 years of blatant reverse discrimination, it's sure going to make it a damn close election. (ggg)
