They'll accept refers from Google, but if you click on a different link you'll get their registration page.
Just click on this link for the Google search, and it should be the first result on the page. This way you'll bypass the registration bs.

Good to read when a woman points out the obvious so eloquently as does Applebaum and, also, Daphne Patai in her book, Heterophobia. Are there others like them?

How terrible to have nothing left but your own self as cliche'.

"And, somehow, that allows her to equate her experience with that of children harassed by Catholic priests or female cadets raped by fellow soldiers."
Yeah, I know, what the Fuck? What this actually tells me is that she hasn't been through too much. To be complaining about how twenty years ago some guy touched her thigh which fucked her whole life up, while having graduated from Yale and then went on to make tons of money from books she's published doesn't get much sympathy from me. I can't help but think that this must have come from someone who's had a life of privilege and entitlement. This is not "trauma".

I sent this email to New York Magazine, which printed Ms. Wolf's article.
Ray
=================================================
Dear Editor:
"The Silent Treatment
She was a Yale senior. He was the superstar professor she’d hoped to impress—until he put his hand on her thigh. Two decades later, she’s speaking out. But her alma mater still isn’t listening. A story of sex, secrets, and Ivy League denial.
By Naomi Wolf"
--------------------------------------------------
I just read the above article by Naomi Wolf in your magazine. I also got my copy of VFW magazine (March, 2004) about a week ago. It sits on my desk now as I write this. On the cover is a male vet just back from Iraq. He sits in a wheel chair with both of his legs missing below the knees. I heard in another story last week that a 20-something vet who lost a leg will get an $800 allowance for the rest of his life.
While I am sure some females have there difficulties in life, the truth is men face violence and discrimination that is far worse than anything Ms. Wolf has ever dreamed of. Thanks to articles like the one by Ms. Wolf cited above, feminism in America is getting to be a bigger joke everyday. When you compare Ms. Wolf's complaint(s) to those of good men returning from Iraq, who really have problems, I for one am disgusted at the relative pettiness I read printed there. To see such tripe being presented in a time, when many of those brave men are facing far, far worse than Ms. Wolf alleges happened to her is appalling. In the future, when your magazine does an article about gender discrimination, please try to keep in perspective the great price that males are enduring for being a member of the disposable gender.
Sincerely, Ray XXXXXXXX

Sure - good point, but not all women are as privileged as Wolf. It is equally petty to whine about a t-shirt or Valentine's Day.
