Feminine/ Feminism.

  I take pride being a Feminine Feminist........ I was attending an All Ladies Night which had all Ladies from Homemakers to Professionals....in all age groups.....Teens to Geriatrics.

I didn't know how to reverse the car. The hospital was very desperate. And it was Emmergency.  My kids aged 4years and 2 years got up due to the lights being switched on. The 2 decided to jump in the car and join me in my Midnight venture in heavy rains.  Due to poor visibility I overshot a lane and entered a very narrow lane. I was in a fix.How do I reverse? I didn't know the area well and had 2 small kids in the car. I looked around and found 2 young boys about 25years or less sitting in front of a closed shop. I called them and asked the directions.
