Being in the generation that was on the cusp of women’s rights and one of the career women who never received equal pay for equal work, I hate to see the young women of today backing some of the candidates who will set us back fifty years. Having not lived through the late fifties and sixties, training their bosses, back alley abortions, and a mainly patriarchal society they do not realize what they will lose. I was one of the lucky ones who married a man who was a women’s libber. Any thoughts? Thank you for creating a web sight that let’s me introduce topics and thoughts of my era and gener.

Not only was Ann Richards one of my heroes , but one of those women who was not afraid to tell it like it was. She is one of the many that helped us say we’ve come a long way baby.
