for posting this. i have been doing a lot of research on just the inundation of misogyny in our world today, that is so beyond with what it was in the past. the conditioning and feeding of this not only to our children, but the acceptance in the adults. and how i feel it is allowing it to lead to repugs war on women. a general ok, that women are the target. and that is ok by society as a whole.

i refuse to use facebook. i was not aware of this on facebook. so, thank you for this information.
