In a manner somewhat similar -- and significantly different -- to Keith Olbermann having Fridays with James Thurber, I'm going to have a few weeks of Saturdays with Janice Raymond. I'll provide have some excerpts from The Transsexual Empire: The Making Of The She/Male, as well as add some commentary.
The reason is pretty simple: I want to show what the ideas of radical, second wave, lesbian-feminism from the 1970's looked like then, and show that a good number of the ideas Raymond expressed are still being kicked around in some circles today.
