Every feminist commenter on every feminist website I used to read back then said over and over and over that attacking Sarah Palin in a sexist manner was just plain wrong. It was mostlt liberal dudes and decidely NON-feminist women engaging in that crap.

There are very few things I have experienced that are as agonizing as a UTI. I felt one coming on once when I was on vacation.
