PostHeaderIcon Lunch with Gloria Steinem

In celebration of International Women’s Day, Women’s History Month and a famous birthday,  I couldn’t help but talk about my lunch with Ms. Gloria Steinem. A dream day explored with readers of TimeFinders Magazine.

Go to  TimeFinders and check out my column Worldly Women and while your there read great articles by fabulous writers. With such diverse voices, there is something for everyone!

Gloria’s Interview with Reuters

On March 25 Ms. Steinem turns 76. I guess that is a big deal as we like to attach an age to everyone; but ultimately 26 or 76 her voice is strong, her message remains clear and her vision is what made my life easier.

Hopefully, there will be other women who won’t get too settled with a sense of entitlement, that they forget any rights they have was not fought for by one half of the population.  (except for a few good men)  It took a whole lot of women to build this up, it took more like Ms. Steinem and others to keep it top of mind and it will take even more to keep rights, laws and political gains moving forward.

If you or your daughter doesn’t appreciate the role women like Ms. Steinem played in history maybe there needs to be some re-education.
