History of Feminism

I'm one of those blunt and direct types and if I've got something to say I'll say it directly to people. I respond to people's posts in GD and disagree with them at times, which last time I checked is allowed everywhere at DU, but that's not calling someone out...

I think we're going to have to agree to disagree on call outs. I just don't think calling out another DUer, especially where they can't respond, is making a case for anything much. I guess I feel strongly about it because it's been done to me in the past. Further downthread, I notice that someone has copied and pasted a list of people who rec'd the OP. I'm on the list and I guess them doing that isn't a call-out, but merely a bit weird, especially when they say about those of us who rec'd it: 'what does that say about the rest of them ... that it is so .... noticeable ....' What it says about me is that I have a tendency to rec OPs I agree with, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the person who said that isn't familiar with the other list I'm on in this group and what she's thinking is probably along the lines of trolls or misogynists or something like that.
