To the Editor:
Re "To Sir, With Love" and "The Trouble With Harry" (columns, Oct. 8 and 12): Maureen Dowd's last two columns made me cringe. I know that they must be deeply hurtful to conservative evangelical Christian women I have loved as best friends, mentors and relatives.
They confirm all suspicion that women and men on the left jointly sneer at their intelligence, accomplishments and sexuality.
I am a feminist who has done work and organizing around issues with which there will be no reconciliation with women like Harriet Miers. Yet I recognize that in a profoundly misogynistic world, women must make no-win choices all the time.
Ms. Miers made hers; I make mine. And I resent Ms. Dowd's alignment with allegedly progressive leftist men who would try to divide us.
