Nikki and Mags,
I'm still working almost 7 days a weeks these days (even today ;-( no BBQ
for me) and have not had the chance to respond again to this thread but
wanted to add that my own personal philosophy on feminism has also always
been to live it in my everyday life, both in my personal behalf and on the
behalf of other women. I also believe actions speak louder than words (or
labels).
