Reviving the Girl in the Locker Room

At the BlogHer '11 Conference in San Diego. Estimated 3,000 female bloggers registered! Time to revive Girl in the Locker Room.
I started this blog in the year 2000 when Salon offered the only community "web-log" platform. Bloggers numbered in the hundreds on the site at the time. Many changes, many voices worldwide have joined the conversation now.
This blog will continue to champion women who challenge gender barriers in employment, sports, and society. The hope is that the younger generations will not allow us to slip back into the Mad Men era from which my generation escaped and will push for the fundamental human rights still denied many women across the globe.
