Well, I fell asleep after class last night, so I'll catch up on the Zine after recording.
First though, I'm not sure if anyone here heard about the women who pulled a Lysistra in September (sex strike), but they were pressuring their husbands to make a child-molesting man give his wife a get (rabbinical divorce), & it worked! This episode of This American Life talks about a more brutal intervention (torture) in the ongoing struggle for women's rights among the Orthodox.
*Lysistrata. Silly typos.
But here's the Lysistrata action article from September, for more info:

@MLClark I hope I live that long
(One day we'll live in a world where women are full people, without contention or fetishization, either for stupid secular reasons or under arbitrary religious mandate. One day!)
