Hi all! I've just found this conference and think its very existence
is FANTASTIC !!! As a relatively new "feminist" (I finally took
the time to find out that the definition of the word is, essentially,
ANYONE who is interested in promoting the interests/concerns of
women) I could relate to some of the comments on fears of being
labelled a "libber" etc. Where did my/the negative connotations of
these two words come from???
A few questions, is it okay to post notices on events happening
around Mass. in this note? i.e. political action events, lectures,
protests, demonstrations, news briefs of women in the news, laws
that impact heavily on women . . . . . .
Hope to hear from you all!
- Mary

Yes, Mary, it's perfectly all right to post event notices. Since
most notes in here are on issues, and attract comments, it's quite
easy and natural to imagine that *all* postings must be issue-oriented,
but that really isn't the case. Informational notes are quite welcome.

If the notes you post are only of limited geographic interest, it's
helpful to put that in the title of the note. People from who couldn't
possibly attend like to be able to hit the "next unseen" key.
