When “Mermade”, who blogs now at “The Bitten Apple”, first took my class, she was a dedicated young Catholic conservative. She is something else today, and I can only take the tiniest smidgen of credit for it — an intro to women’s studies class can open a door, but not everyone walks through it. Mermade walked through that door and has gone on her own remarkable journey since. You should be reading her blog regularly, but her post today — in defense of the label “feminist” — is the sort that makes me proud and humbled.

Thanks for the link and kind words!
Sounds like good reasons to keep the label for herself. She has a nice way with words.
