This is not my area of expertise (biographies of conservative lesbians) but this page needs some serious rewriting and editing. This sentence in particular, in addition to needed an edit and rewrite with three less clauses, shows extreme bias: "She dated women and describes how inferior she felt, when judged by women during flirting: the harsh way in which many women pre-judged her, assuming all men to be essentially the same, turned her, albeit briefly, into a "temporary misogynist", seeing as most women never can the failings of her own sex from the other side."
I haven't inspected the sources used for this page, but at the very least, the claim that "women never can [see] the failings of her own sex" needs to be attributed to someone. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.238.187.244 ( talk) 02:59, 8 December 2006 (UTC).
does she self-identify as a feminist? nothing in the material listed in this wikipedia article suggests that, and i've never heard her described as a feminist elsewhere. not all lesbians are feminist! -- lquilter 15:06, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
She described herself as a feminist in many interviews, so we can say for certain that she was indeed a feminist Randomtipo ( talk) 18:00, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
One of the sentences reads: Vincent was a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, one of several neoconservative think tanks in the United States, from its 2001 inception to 2003.
If you click on the page about the FDD, they claim to be non-partisan and have two Democratic senators as founding members: Lieberman and Schumer. So what is the evidence for the claim? Perhaps someone on the far left called it that as an attack.
I haven't read Voluntary Madness, but the summary from the section strikes me as possbily reversed by editorial inattention or confusion: "...while others addressed merely the problem instead of its symptoms." It is a commonplace to accuse (mental) health professionals of papering over the cracks, of dosing away the symptoms and ignoring the underlying problem. Can anyone confirm that this summary is accurate? BrainyBabe ( talk) 18:39, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
