5. I don't think you're reading anything into it --
just that it was their own egos that got them thinking they were better than they were. And that it happens regardless of gender. I think you give them too much credit (if that's the right word here) when you attribute their behavior to an altruistic desire to further womens' rights.

And I was thinking the same thing, about they WEREN'T the pioneers as I was reading your post. A lot had gone on before them, but there were still a lot of hurdles and old thinking to overcome.

I think YOU are more a feminist than they. :headbang:
