Well...I wasn't going to bring here any specific baby-related stuff because this is not the focus of volconvo.
My outrage (and I tend to get like that quite a bit) had to do with the enormous amount of censoring, mouth-plastering, consensus-forcing women's forums in this country. I don't know what you are talking about when you say that American women are opinionated...the ones I have seen, not just locally, but on boards all over the country are nothing close to opinionated. There is a general drive to only talk about extremely safe, non-controversial topics and a level of unimaginable sensitivity to ANY (and I repeat ANY) issue that goes beyond "how wonderful our babies are".
I will write more when I return.
