You are so right. Perhaps anger isns't the right word but frustration certainly is. Although it certainly is better for women today than it was in the 60s, in looking at the total picture, women are still taking two steps forward and one step back (at best).

If I was (much) younger I would be in Washington lobbying for women's rights in one way or another. But since I am old and poor I will just have to settle with speaking my mind and writing to my congressmen.

Thanks for your kind and correct words. There are others on this site who could also learn something from you. If they read this, they will know who they are.
