Re: Howard's 'Les Patterson' jibe ... it's nice to see that Link members
haven't lost their ability to hit below the belt.  Or is he being
over-protective of the reputation of cross-dressers ?


Coercion by family, in my opinion, has long been a problem for women, who in
the days of male domination in the family were often 'guided' by husbands
(and allowed to enter the ballot booth with them).  Sons did the same with
elderly mothers.

I remember my mother being very proud of her independence in voting -
without seeking any advice from Dad (and probably contrary to his choice).
In those days it was almost unknown for most women to express political
viewpoints different from their husbands.
