  • fabulous and can’t wait for no. 3! i don’t know how you have time to find all of these things and leave comments. how is that massive order for your cards going?

  • They never paid me. Can you believe it, Cindy? Craziness. :)

    Congratulations on making the eZine… I’ll be sure to promote it on my blog.

  • What a sweet note, dear Pat! And gracious, I’m LOVING your site!!! :)

  • Just wondering what you mean when you state that you are not a feminist? Does it mean you don’t believe a woman should get equal pay for equal work, that a woman shouldn’t be safe from domestic violence & sexual abuse? Surely all modern women in free socities are feminists. We are able to say NO, we have the right to vote, we can choose when, where & if we work, who we love, whether to marry, if we have kids or not etc etc. Isn’t feminism all about having autonomy in our own life & the right to choose who we will be regardless!!! When did “feminist” become a dirty word?

  • Hi Sharyne!!!

    Thanks so so so much for your comment. You raise a fantastic point re: feminism and the fact that is has such a negative connotation.

    I have tremendous respect for all types of feminists and find their knowledge of the topic quite inspiring. I don’t know much re: the history of feminism in terms of the definition at hand (radical, third-wave, etc), but all I can stand for is what I know from my experiences.

    So I guess when I say that I’m not a feminist, it simply means that I haven’t figured out where to categorize myself on the spectrum. It’s a bit like saying I’m not a photographer, b/c I haven’t committed myself to studying the craft. I do, however practice photography techniques at times, but I wouldn’t label myself as such.

    Does that make ANY sense? I do hope I haven’t offended you, and I think your points are right on. I’d love to talk with you more about your thoughts— email me!!! :)
