Ah, the wisdom garnered as a teen from a gay, feminist folk idol.
Ani Difranco once sang "...women should be allies and not competitors." Knock Ani all you want, but I would like to think that a touch of her feminism has stuck with me over the years. Hence the inspiration for an offer of the olive branch to an "enemy".
Really, why should a man be allowed to pit two women against eachother in venomous competition? Should that kind of ferocity and cunning not be reserved for someone who really has it coming?
No, I am not giving any background on this. But ladies, I know you know what I'm talking about. Stop, reconsider - maybe this enemy is really an ally in disguise.
Now back to writing that has context.
