Trolling the blogroll today and found this fantastic post on Alice's blog:

This is a lot like the conversations I used to have with other women in college, both in and out of class. It's amazing how much sexism still colors our daily lives. And while it's horrifying to read the things that people do to each other because they feel entitled to our bodies and our attention/affection, it's great to see that we are becoming more aware of the problem. But how long will it be before no one is hechando piropos at women who are going about their own lives? How long until we are really and truly equal?
