From the text of the passage as written, it’s entirely clear to any literate reader that “they” refers to women who ramble on about how much they want to be liberated.

Sorry you missed it.

Oh I did not miss it..Actually, I am a literate reader—I taught college business English.

I just find it obnoxious when people stereotype women or any other group with words like “they.”


“Sheer idiocy, but they wanna be equal...”

“They” do not speak for me, and I never asked them to do so. I take issue with posters assuming that one position represents all women.
