I remember that ....
It was eye-opening how the English sailors considered the Japanese "barbarians" but as you read the book and saw the sailors through the natives' eyes you got a completely different perspective in a lot of ways. Well ... except for the casual attitude toward human life, of...
I learned recently (last week, I think, on CBS Sunday Morning) that they are no longer called that, as it's deemed sexist. The modern term is suffragists. Not all activists for women's equality were women.
I do not have any ex-battery chickens, actually, although I do love following along with @Shadrach's journey of his experiences with his ... I do, however, have a lovely Golden retriever bitch, now spayed, that DH and I rescued by purchasing her from a breeder.
