Man, I really need to stop these attempts at humor.  The "self described" 
thing was just a reference to how all anarchists have lately been labeled in 
the media as "self described" or simply "anarchists."  I was actually 
responding to the fact that these particular feminists would not fit Neuro's 
own officially licensed (tm) definition of feminism, contrary to my 
intuition.
