Rich Sensitivities: An Analysis of Conflict Among Women in Feminist Memoir (Report‪)‬

They asked me to leave the women's liberation movement because I had taken leadership when I didn't deserve it. It was like a witchhunt. They voted me out of the movement. I even found the office to rent in which I was voted out. I cried for days (Marilyn Webb quoted in Echols 1989:205). At parties [feminists] start to ask leading questions that have the ring of inquisition. I avoid gatherings of these women, walking as I do in fear of being sanctified or else burned at the stake (Appendix, Atwood 1988:399).
