Nifty aphorism by Rebecca West

[devifemme]

I borrowed this from a girl I just friended, but I managed to lose her page as I clicked over to post it -- "I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is; I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute

Have fun! And yep, that quote is sadly accurate.

Thanks! Rebecca West was a kick-ass writer. Her personal collision with Anais Nin over femmie issues was epochal.

Hugs, Justine

Every time I see that name, I have to do a double take. You see, my name is Rebecca West, but not that Rebecca West. I wish I could say I was named after her, but it was just an accident of being adopted. I swear someday if I write a novel, I'll use her birth name. I do love having the name, though.
