[net.women] What this newsgroup is for

janetr (01/31/83)

I disagree that this newsgroup is just for being helpful and
supportive. I think small children and old people crossing
busy streets might need help and support--for adult women, I'd
much rather have honest, open discussions (altho I agree with
you that few people are likely to change their minds about a
topic like abortion as a result of reading something).
