For the love of Pete, will someone please explain to me why the preference of men to associate with other men in a club is "bigotry", while the preference of women to associate with other women in an all-women's college, such as Hillary's alma mater Wellesley, is something to be "celebrated"?

No one could possibly explain that.

I can provide insight as to why NOW chooses to attempt to wield dwindling relevance by attacking the Augusta.THE MONEY.

Just as the NAACP is no longer a "real" movement or the lone "voice" of a once stifled minority, so is NOW exibiting its death throes. A great many people of these once vital organizations no longer enjoy wide popularity nor can they generate enough financial contributions to contribute to their mini bureacracies.They do not have the power to tax.

But how will they live? What happens to people who fight for a just cause, win, and then are expected to re-join the rest of society? Mundane reality and regular jobs are not exciting enough to idealists.Surely there must be other things that need to be "fixed".

NOW was once part of a long and proud history of brave American women who demanded respect and equality.They accomplished their noble goals, but some of them refuse to end the "war".

Had they taken up the guantlet of the horrors of existance suffered by thirdworld women, they may have been able to maintain their relevancy and paychecks.Instead they have become an embarassment to womens rights, and a target for backlash.

I would offer myself up to the private golf club as a token female member who would never play there, never pay there and ignore them totally, but I think it is important to stop PC BS.

NOW, and many such organizations need to learn the definition of disband.They have forsaken the moral high ground.They are now the enemy of the people.
