62. No one could make me feel poorly for my choice, they don't have that
kind of power.

Yes you are right what feminism has done for women, and I am very proud of the women who have fought to give us the rights we have today, but thier is an underlying belief among many (not all) feminists who look down on women who still choose traditonal roles.

I don't believe the Jerry Falwells of the world will ever be able to take away what we have gained.

I can also give my own mother as an example, all she ever wanted was to be a mother in a traditional role but was forced out into the working world due to her poor choice in men (3 marriages 8 children later) and she was miserable.

I feel for your mom as I do my own because she couldn't live the life she wanted.

I think we agree mostly too,

A few bad apples can spoil the bunch
