GOAN WOMEN ACHIEVERS One is pleased to see great Goan women being recognised
Their achievements have for long been despised and disguised Now will someone please compile a profile Of woman achievers that have done something worthwhile So that our young girls are of their achievements apprised? - Shanti Dhoot RE: Message: 6 ; 8 May 2008 From: "jane gillian rodrigues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Goanet] great goan women Dear Friends, (A) I must commend Placinto on his beautifully written article on "Great Goan Women". In fact, even better, he has given a solution to all Goans, as to how, probably, a better alternative to bad governance by goan males in Goa, is, "to reserve 100% of the assembly seats to Goan women for just a decade,...". A fantastic solution to all the annual, childish, immature tantrums which are resorted to by goan politicians which are time and money-consuming re-elections, in Goa. (B) Selma's e-mail, below was also interesting, as it praised all Great Indian women, but unfortunately, the men of those states, such as Maharashtra, Kerala etc... have not praised their own women, but Placinto, a goan male has praised Goan Women. Great!!!!!!!! Her statement in her e-mail below:- "Conversely many a Goan female leads a very sheltered life and is unable to hold a conversation on anything other than maids and babies", is surprising, because every Goan woman I meet, loves to speak about, not only maids and babies, but also ...politics, careers, women's rights....etc. I agree, many a Goan female is proud and privileged to lead a very sheltered, but, safe life, with love, support,help and respect from family members. Can any of you tell me, whether Madame Reita Faria, of Tivim village, Goa, who won the "Miss World" Title did so, by speaking about maids and babies?????. Regards
