    Disappointed

    Every Wednesday, when I open my Chicago Tribune, I wonder yet again why they bother printing a separate weekly section called "WomenNews." I'm disappointed to see Salon doing essentially the same thing. I don't understand why this is necessary. Isn't women's news just human news? If you need a place for celebrity gossip and fashion, use The Fix and create a style section. I've been reading Salon for years and have never wished for a special section devoted to my gender. Why would I need that?
