Marot Kidder was an actress and activist for environmental, political, and women's causes. She was born in Yellowknife, NWT, Canada, October, 17th, 1948. She had a sister, three brothers, one daughter, and at least two grandchildren. As an actress she may be most known as Lois Lane in Superman, with Christopher Reeves. The rest of her life was busy and made messy due to mental illness. But, she was involved with many things and had a respect for people who also had problems in their lives.
I never met her. I would have liked to, not because she became famous but because she seemed to think and feel as I do, maybe a kindred spirit. She was just a few years younger than my Mother, which surprised me. I had thought we were close in age. Time flies.

Wikipedia is doing this #SheSaid Wiki Loves Women thing. I'd like to support it. I just don't feel I can rely on it.
The idea of giving more women a voice, or a place/forum to hear the voice they've been using for years.... is great. But, is it really about women anymore? Or is this just another placebo. Using inclusivity as a way to exclude women while pushing the agenda of men who think putting on make up, a skirt and having body modifications is all a woman really is?
I've lived through too many years as a real woman to accept men (no matter how demanding and aggressive) as women.
It bothers me that we don't even think of this as a feminist issue. The men have infiltrated and influenced too far for women to get their heads above it and have a voice. More likely, it will be other men protesting the issue, who are heard. Not us, not the women being pushed out of our own gender.
An online magazine for women, about menstruation. Health, culture, art, quotes, fun, even a little shopping.
