Default Re: Feminist author has to rewrite book after death threats from Muslims

I wasn't going to include Muslims in this part of the conversation, I was referring to Westerners.



Odd, I've never had that impression of women. It just never occured to me to think of women in today's equality as a threat. Where did you get that idea?[/quote]

HI Ras!

I am talking of Westerners even so..its less perceived now than it once was but it still remains to a degree.


I am actually going by what I have heard from my daughter and her place of employment. I had a little experience as well, but this was in the musical industry when I was young..its very competitive, and you can become a threat quickly in that industry if you go through the wrong channels you may not get in at all. Also when I was young and went into the business I am in now, I personally posed a threat to an owner of a company in which I too wanted to start..it was loud and clear. I am small potatoes compared to him..but at the time I guess he was concerned. So this is my own personal experience.

I just think the atmosphere should be a little more relaxed and for male administrators at these hospitals over the female employee would be's should open more doors a bit and not worry about being taken over.
