Our realities are always a function of our perceptions. <br /><br />The issue for many women of color is that they be considered as collaborators, and not subordinates. Women, for the most part, have to show their respect, adoration, admiration, and even a little exaggeration just to make it working in a man's world.<br /><br />The need for revision on a rough draft is a given. Everyone knows that it will to be tweeked. So to mention the need to revise a rough draft can come off as condescending.<br /><br />However, I welcome alternative views as it challenges me and my readers to revise and edit the scripts that come natural, but may no longer be best. <br /><br />I submit that our discourse and our ways of relating should continue to evolve.

Emotional appeals are necessary when fundraising. The 3rd party fund development person will know more how to appeal to his constituency and so any materials prepared prior to meeting with that person probably will be considered a draft and have to be revised, maybe or maybe not.<br /><br />But those are just some things to consider prior to feeling "dissed."Revvy Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05964843778509089405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233035857995441246.post-88816101903516957102009-01-17T16:12:00.000-08:002009-01-17T16:12:00.000-08:00welcome to osf. this theme song made my feet move ...welcome to osf. this theme song made my feet move each week.Hagar's Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05329175102157599795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233035857995441246.post-69618894139279995862009-01-17T16:02:00.000-08:002009-01-17T16:02:00.000-08:00You know how much I liked this show and was dedica...You know how much I liked this show and was dedicated to it.
