Actions speak louder than words (even when they are on a mug...or pin, bumper sticker, etc.).

We all need to stand up and say it at every opportunity. This includes men as well! Too many have remained silent for over 40 years and that is why we are a majority that is treated like a minority STILL! One step forward and two steps back has been the norm. The ERA was never passed...go figure.

If that is the case, then you must insist, one way or another, that they do.

The mug might work. So might simply insisting that you have something to add to the discussion.

because I'm a pushy broad and I'm usually the only attorney in the room. For me I was thinking of it as a joke but I want it for gifts for a couple of friends.

take out an ad on facebook, sell them for some outrageous amount like 20-30 and I think you'd clean up.
