It seems that self-image is close to all women's hearts, and though this is a sad thing in one respect, it's also a hopeful one.<br /><br />Green Ink, thanks for the link! As you can see, I've contacted A Cuban in London to take part in the debate!<br /><br />And A Cuban in London - hello! I look forward to taking part in the debate - the article was really interesting. I had a look over some of your blog and I look forward to reading more!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01605290776067192864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889218320515202369.post-54857141693009831932010-03-25T10:42:20.621+00:002010-03-25T10:42:20.621+00:00Thanks for your e-mail to which I will respond lat...Thanks for your e-mail to which I will respond later on today. I look forward to your being part of the debate. As for this:<br /><br />'there is a danger that attempting one politically-minded post would leave me typing a rambling, inarticulate stream of ideas for the rest of eternity.'<br /><br />I don't think so. It depends on how your readers take it. I've now readd some of your posts (being new to your blog) and you come across as an articulate person. Rambling is churning out comment after comment with no back-up whereas intelligent debate... well, the name says it all. You look at the majority of the arguments, conduct a thorough analysis and arrive at a conclusion based on your personal opinion. Of course, preconceived ideas will filter through, that's what makes us human. But there's a different between ranting for the sake of ranting and having an informed talk with your readers.<br /><br />Many thanks to green ink for the link. I really appreciate it.<br /><br />Greetings from London.A Cuban In Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16423293358605007539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889218320515202369.post-80200074229473745642010-03-24T16:05:31.845+00:002010-03-24T16:05:31.845+00:00I really wish I had the answers for some of the th...I really wish I had the answers for some of the things you've raised here....I just don't, sadly. I completely agree with you that it isn't about society anymore - it's about self worth. A positive self image is such a steely armour in today's world, and that's something I definitely want to instil in my own children one day. <br /><br />This blogger is looking for others to contribute to a feminist debate - and I immediately thought of you:<br /><br />http://cubaninlondon.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Check it out, I think you'd have a lot of valuable things to say!<br /><br />xgreen inkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955967846673578879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889218320515202369.post-21286282367482299912010-03-24T13:43:07.469+00:002010-03-24T13:43:07.469+00:00Really enjoyed reading that!

I wish for her to know this before the age of 30. Which is when I finally was able to stop hiding behind an image I felt I needed to portray.<br /><br />Great topic... your writing is impeccable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
