One giant leap

So feminists -- at least one, anyway -- are finally getting it, about the whole Muslim head-scarf thing.

The Walk-Man sez: "This gives me the warm fuzzies.

"Yes it does, yes it does! Wonderful, beautiful. If veteran feminists didn't scare me, I might even be mildly attracted."

(Hahahahaha! It took me a few minutes to recover from hearty appreciative laughter to try and get back on tangent :)

It turns out that at least one prominent feminist -- Canadian Quebecoise Diane Guilbault -- takes her fellow feminists to task in a new book, "Démocratie et égalité des sexes," for willfully turning a blind eye to the oppression of women that headscarves ultimately represent.

Here's the lede in an article in The Montreal Gazette Walker cites:

"In an unusual act of non-solidarity, a veteran Quebec feminist has publicly attacked her peers on the political left who, she says, undermine women's rights by supporting religious accommodations like the Muslim headscarf."

(Why it should be "an unusual act of non-solidarity" is, perhaps, a topic for another discussion.)

Hip, hip, hooray! Now, girls -- can we please ALL start seeing reason, now?
