 +Lola: obviously, equality of wages, division of labor/​roles,​ representation. Indirect equalities: human relationships. How we think of "​men"​ and "​women"​ and their qualities. We now see them as human qualities that anyone can have.

 +Jenny: at basis, we just want to be treated like human beings, to walk through the world as individuals and not representatives of a "​class"​ (people of color experience this in the extreme). In the western world, the definition of normal has been heterosexual white male and anything that deviates from that is seen as abnormal and in need of "​fixing."​ But NOW, women are simply seen as individual humans. Judged on behavior and talent, not in relation to a standard, but as individuals.

 +Percy-"​Women on the Edge of Time"
 +Burgoyne-Corbett (spelling?​),​ 1889-"​The New Amazonia"​. A dream utopia of Vegetarian, belief in a positive after-life, women led.

 +Dave: Kim Stanley-Robinson-"​2312"​ Diversity of sexuality.
