Time Magazine has just released a special issue called "Women: The Road
Ahead." From the introduction by the editor:
"As roughly half the world's population, women would hardly seem to need
to struggle for attention. Yet struggle is precisely what they have been
doing in the final decades of the 20th century. Their endeavors deserve
no less a word than revolution - in expectations, accomplishments,
self-realization and relationships with men. It is a revolution that,
though far from complete, promises over time to bring about changes as
profound for men and women as any that have occurred in Eastern Europe or
the Soviet Union in the past year.
It was in this context that we decided it was time to prepare an entire
issue on women..."
This special issue is being sent automatically to all subscribers and
will be available on the newsstands for several weeks.
After a very cursory review of the topics, it looks to be a fascinating
piece.

P.S. I was going to just post this as a reply to the "In the News" topic,
but I think this issue warrants its own topic.

I love the perceptiveness of their use of the word "revolution."
I think it *will* take place, and it's not only men & women that will
be affected, but children, war/peace, art, science, living on the
earth.
Can you imagine a place where no child is ever beaten, and a place
where any woman can go in safety, anywhere/anytime she wants.
