After complaints from some religious people they&nbsp;apologized and scrubbed all mention of Ms. Steinem and the Equal Rights Coalition from their website, which angered many more who are long-time fans of Ms. Steinem and equality.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/01/business/catalog-interview-with-gloria-steinem-has-lands-end-on-its-heels.html">Catalog Interview With Gloria Steinem Has Lands’ End on Its Heels</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-215#post-1623676 Wed, 02 Mar 2016 09:33:53 +0000 Inge 1623676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's an interesting take for sure, thanks very much, Anna.<br />I remember that post too, Kari, and now I'm just as curious as you about the airline uniforms.
