Since Teamestrogen doesn't want any political discussions (too bad, since as a Canadian, I could learn a lot from hearing regular folks...), I will just say: I've been intrigued some of the American commentary why Hillary Clinton as part of the older generations of career women and feminist, doesn't know how to speak to the young women electorate.

Methinks, hectoring young women about historic (though recent) milestones in North America, about workplace equity, changed societal attitudes about balancing career and family: it takes enormous self-restraint not to fall into lecturing younger generation. To let the younger generation of adults, fall down and struggle first. Then offer support and helping hand.

When I learned my partner's daughter was reading about feminism when she was around 15 yrs. --I inwardly cheered. I told my partner I thought it was great. And he thought so too. Better they take the initiative learn and appreciate the historic recent trajectory. She is now 37 yrs. old.

When now, I see my 30 yr. old niece's tweets that clearly show clear broad understanding of ongoing problems in misygony in certain workplaces, pay equity for same work, value of women for full breadth of her skills, knowledge vs. youth/beauty....I am relieved. But she earned that understanding the hard way: she has an engineering university degree and has worked in predominantly male workplaces. (mining industry). I believe she has had unpleasant experiences since she is lovely looking quiet woman because she said to me "it was horrible". I have not inquired about that work history. But know she reads and tweets about geek feminism (women in the technical fields and dealing with certain attitudes).
