Ok, that is the link.
Me? I reckon she did the right thing.
I am not sure what benefit I might have gained from blowing up Biba, a store in london - but if her refuges had been there for my mother, it certainly would have helped.
I am suprised that some feminists still attack her - and no, I don't subscribe to Harriet Harman's view that men cannot contribute anything to the family.

But what's your take on Erin Pizzey, I wonder?

I wasn't quoting Pizzey there. I was quoting the blogger whose page quoting Pizzey you linked to.

HE'S unhinged in his paranoia about feminism. Pizzey I am accusing of presenting a distorted view of feminism as a whole.

Well, it sounds to me like you are trying to damn Pizzey by association. this guy has the longest complete quote on Pizzey I can find - I thought maybe an independent source would have been better than her own weblog , but I can go there if you wish .

No, I am not trying to damn Pizzey by his words. I am commenting on the blogger in response to a comment about the blogger.

I am criticizing Pizzey for entirely different reasons.

So,let's focus on that , and not the blogger who quotes her - I am not interested in this guy half as much as you , it seems.

His only role in this discussion is that he quotes her work. he may well agree, but this does not alter the fact that Pizzey has said this herself, it's her ideas I want to consider.

You know, I've discussed Pizzey here plenty, and you don't get to decide what every side conversation among responders gets to be.

Sheesh.
