  • Feminist Gloria Steinem discusses her book "Revolution from Within: A Book of Self-Esteem" with Upon Reflection host Marcia Alvar in this interview from the University of Washington. Steinem discusses her childhood experiences and events in her adult life that influenced the book. A lack of positive self-esteem, especially in this country, Steinem argues, lies at the root of many social and political problems.

    It's crazy that she had this awareness about self-love so long ago. Her insight one it is fascinating to see in 1992.

      For me, as a gay kid (male but living outside of the mainstream, seeing the world but always feeling I was viewing it through a different lens than the rest of the world), feminism was so refreshing. I felt like they were also people seeing the world with a non-mainstream perspective. (It was the 70s, so gay writing and talk was really absent from the public sphere.) Hearing feminists talk kept me sane, made me feel less alone, in a way.

      Eh. I think the interviewer is describing what she thought she read and Gloria is responding. It seem antagonistic, but I think it works really well because Gloria has no problem with disagreeing with her.

    Here are some thoughts on Gloria Steinem by leftist political activist Tom Hayden -- from his November 2014 piece in The Nation (Of course, he was dying of cancer by that point, so he figured he had nothing to lose and could finally tell the truth):
    "...(Traveling to California in the early 1960s) I spent an exhilarating summer staying in an apartment full of Berkeley radicals. One of the many visitors I met was Donald Hoffman, who represented the National Student Association, which included members of student government and (the University of Michigan's student newspaper, the Michigan) Daily editors that met every summer. He was a bit older than me, a friendly liberal fellow who wanted to make sure that Berkeley students came to that summer’s national convention. He also was a CIA agent, and remained so for many decades.
    The editor of the (Michigan) Daily before me, Peter Eckstein, was enlisted by the CIA to direct its recruiting operations, which targeted student activists in Europe who had been attracted to Soviet-sponsored youth festivals. Peter was preceded by another Daily editor, Harry Lunn, who became a lifetime CIA operative in many postings around the world.
    In 1962, curious about these youth festivals and eager to see the world, I interviewed as a possible participant in an American (anti-communist) delegation to the Soviet-sponsored Helsinki Youth Festival in Finland, one of several of the era. Their purpose was to confront the communist delegates with a counter-narrative about American democracy and firmly oppose any rapprochement or coexistence between capitalism and communism. Neutralism in the Cold War was considered as being “soft” on Communism.
    In the end, I didn’t attend. But I will never forget the smart, attractive woman who interviewed me. A graduate of Smith College, her name was Gloria Steinem. This was one year before she worked at the Playboy Club in New York City and six years before she wrote “A Bunny’s Tale” in Show magazine and (suddenly) described herself as an “active feminist” in 1969.
    The CIA’s Harry Lunn, according to Patriotic Betrayal, encouraged Steinem to become “the public face of the Independent Service for Information,” an anti-communist delegation controlled and funded by the CIA, on the Vienna Youth Festival; by early 1959, it had been renamed the Independent Research Service. She was “one of the few women in the NSA-CIA club,” Paget writes, noting that “Steinem, who knowingly cooperated with the CIA, is sensitive today about her work with the Agency.”
    Steinem recruited about one hundred Americans into a delegation to confront the 17,000 youth at the 1959 Vienna Youth Festival under the banners of Marxism and national liberation. Her bloc employed dirty tricks to disrupt the proceedings, including distributing anti-communist propaganda to fill a shortage of toilet paper and invading discussion groups to attack communist dogma. Pleased with her work in Vienna, the CIA sent Steinem to lead a similar delegation to Helsinki in 1962, where the CIA courted African students with American jazz and, according to Paget, left “memorable images of Steinem parting the beaded curtains to enter the nightclub as if she was Mata Hari.”
    Gloria Steinem. Well connected to the wealthy elite and ruling elite in America -- and a CIA operative since the 1950s.
    If only the (completely duped and deceived) women in America knew the truth, huh? At least Tom Hayden, dying of cancer in 2014, knew the truth -- and wrote about it.
    Tom Hayden (1939-2016). RIP.

    "The TRUTH will set you free, but first it will piss you off" - Gloria Steinem The quote: The truth will set you free originates from John 8:32 Holy Bible, then utilized by Gloria Steinem a radical feminist from the 1960's with the identical ideology as the new LGBTQ+ ideology.

    Given the fuzzy irrational behaviour of Steinem, I'm not surprised that that she simply followed Naomi Wolf and made a fool of herself by claiming:
    "In this country alone, according to the American Anorexia and Bulimia Association, about 150,000 females die of anorexia each year - and they're often the female version of "the best an the brightest": intelligent and sensitive young women who want to use their talents, and yet are still in an economic class and culture that pressure women to be decorative and "perfect". As Naomi Wolf asks on behalf of her contemporaries, "How would America react to the mass self-immolation by hunger of it's favourite sons?"
    Revolution from Within: A Book of Self-Esteem (1992), page 222
    At least Wolf had the humility to correct her woozle and point out that t5he number was not 150,000 nut less than 100. Steinem was so arrogant and self absorbed she saw no need .... and even republished the Woozled Claim in 2012, after 20 years of having been publicly slapped by Dr C Hoff Sommers.

      Do what you will and want. We have no quarrel with people like you having your own lives and styles.
      Our quarrel comes when such low and despicable human garbage forces their will upon all of us.
