Only 17 people? I guess FMH will have to fly me & Quimby there next time!

I generally enjoy FMH, and I’m a male. Yet, I have so much in common with most of the women there. I did start out with a bang there by linking a post to a picture of the stereotyping of woman’s expected roles:

Next year in Jerusalem, Eve. You too, LRC!

It was very nice to meet you and chat, reader Rachel, you should comment around here more often.

Clark, Matt, Ardis I’ll follow up on Margaret next week — right now, I’m just catching the material, and chatting and seeing friends, and still there’s way too much for me to actually do it all. This conference has been great.

Thanks for doing this, for those of us who can’t attend. This sounded like a great day at Sunstone.

I’m struck by the realization that motherhood is the number one risk factor for poverty. If we truly honor motherhood as much as we say, why is this the case? Shouldn’t we be doing more to support mothers? I think that’s a profound question.

I unfortunately have a smallish pile of real work that I have to finish this morning, so I’m having to basically skip the morning. I’ll definitely be blogging this afternoon, though.

I appreciate you doing this, Kaimi. I usually throw up an open thread for Sunstone, but I’m not staying at the hotel and don’t want ot schlep my laptop around, so I have very limited computer time to comment on the sessions I attend.

I enjoyed seeing you and other Bloggernacle personalities throughout the day.

I am curious for an expansion of what is meant by this statement. “Is it possible that sex is both eternal and fluid? Flux. A particle and a wave.” Was there any expansion on this, or just this soundbyte?

Maybe Margaret Toscano has been reading Gabriel Fournier.
