I am a product of my culture and my faith. I am the daugther of the taboos and silences from which I fought to free myself. I am the sister of every woman struggling against the oppressive forces that have suffocated our sex lives and made them such minefields, and is resolutely and tenaciously fighting against the oppressive forces that have strangled our socieities politically. I am the best friend of the woman who marches in protest against the political despots outside and continues that protest against the personal despots inside.
Yes!!! Everything you say seems so obviously true and important. To be strong and to fight these oppressions, we, women, must look at ourselves more deeply (which is hard)....and face all the terrible FEARS that we have of being attacked - physically and/or with shaming and ridicule. SISTERS we can do this!!
