HATE it.
I was relieved when the pretentious "Mothers Who Think" section was re-titled "Life"; now I'm faced with another "aren't we too cool" division of what should/could be the refuge of ALL thinking, funny, reality-based people.
At 55 I'm TIRED of artificial divisions, even well-intentioned ones; why did you feel the need to elevate office prattle to the level of a new Salon blog? Where is the man's blog?... Have I been reading the Daou Report and not realizing I was identifying with the male point of view?
And by the way --- "broad" is a term that carries plenty of baggage, and not of the "tough, independent woman" variety. Originally, it referred to prostitutes (as in Broad or Broadway street). In my part of the country it is an epithet.
HATE it.
