This was a wonderful tribute. Brilliant people are often a bit off-putting. It simply comes with the territory. 

Isn't it interesting how women were excluded from most spheres of influence for thousands of years but when Daly created women-only spaces in academia, it was an issue and she was a freak (her lesbianism was also viciously mocked). Every movement needs its Mary Daly's to hold up the mirror and point out things we'd rather not see. The good thing is, today we can't unsee them.
