Comments on: Women’s Rights: Seemingly a Low Priority http://stevecotler.com/tales/2009/01/06/womens-rightsseemingly-a-low-priority/ One man's squint at the metaphorical signposts, songbirds, soapboxes, street musicians, and hot dog stands of life. Criticism, lyricism, polemics, performance, and making change...all with mustard.

I chose to write to the 17 women, thinking that they would be more responsive. Maybe I was wrong. Send a note to your male senator(s)—assuming you are not a resident of California or Maine, both of which have two women senators—copy me, and I’ll post it here.

Why should it be the responsibility of just the women? I would hope that in this day and age we would hold the male senators to a higher standard than one that assumes it should fall to the women to care about women's issues.

Maybe they don't know where their local post office is. That, along with their non-response in general, worries me greatly.

I think you should send those Senators each a follow-up with a copy of your letter above. Keep us posted. OH I’m so disheartened!

Even your own two? Even the one from NY? Atrocious. Not one response from any of the 17 female senators? Even your own two? Even the one from NY? Atrocious.
