54. An old, old story
Back in the old days flight attendants were called "stewardesses" and were fired if they married or got pregnant. After much agitation by feminist union women this situation changed. So now we can hear married and pregnant stewardesses say, "I'm not a feminist, but.......yadayadayadayada."

The struggle is worth it for its own sake. Some of your beneficiaries will realize what they owe you, but most won't. A few will mask their own cowardice with contempt.
