I got involved in this web site for the scholarship but now I want to make my own nonprofit focusing on poverty and women's issues. I found this quote while searching the net:

Oh! The crying injustice towards woman! She is crushed in every step she takes, and then insulted for being what a most pernicious education and corrupt public sentiment has made her.
Ernestine Rose

What will it take for society and even women to view their gender as "equal" beings? We can get an education, climb the corporate ladder, raise a family sucessfully and in some cases by ourselves and still...get spat on! How do we change the cycle, what can be down to stop the injustice? 

Way to put the women's message out there and do something about it.

wow to go thnaks for a women

You have to get into our brains. Even those who think of ourselvs as "enlightened feminists" get caught in perpetuating these woman crushing cycles. And then we get to become hypocrites. But learning from that, I realize, you have to help get inside ourselves and figure out what poison taints us. Helps us bloom from the inside out. Help us disover how to purge our own self-destruction, and rise.

I would start with you to. Those of us who wish to help, often carry the very seeds we try to unsow in others.

I commend your trying to change the world. It needs each little bit.
