To everyone who saw or participated in the earlier thread, I asked Treasonous Bastard to repost this so that we could have a meaningful discussion of this book and topic.

From my perspective, I hadn't heard of this book and want to read it. I don't know any women who have made this choice and have only heard of one or two limited anecdotes. For those of you who don't go to Meta, one of our fellow DUers, Melinda, posted a first person perspective that all should read.
