What a complicated business: is the message that "we want to be separate and equal," or is there more to it? Is now (2011) a time when we can define ourselves as human beings as well as Jewish and Women and Americans and dwellers in.... and members of the ....congregation? What do we lose when we don't name our various identities? What do we gain? Thank you for posting this essay.
