Gansley-Ortiz) Newsgroups: soc.feminism Subject: Re: equal rights? Message-ID: <86829@aerospace.AERO.ORG> Date: 26 Sep 90 18:55:16 GMT Sender: nadel@aerospace.aero.org Lines: 16 Approved: nadel@aerospace.aero.org Status: R I would disagree with Mr. Gazit's statement that every act of feminism is linked to NOW. Each individual has their own definition of feminism and acts accordingly. What the nation sees may be NOW, or the hierarchy of Christianity, but some people do take people as individuals and try not to associate what someone is with what another group says they are. If I say I live in a house full of animal rights activists/vegitarians/ ecologists/anti-gun advocates, does that mean I am one too? Each person who calls themselves an X lives under the house of X. But the house of X does not have to have all the same values as the person. Andrea Gansley-Ortiz
