  Cheers go out today to Lisa of Cadence90, first for the bravado with which she owned her use of the term chicks, clearly explaining her motivation rather than blaming a linguistically shallow culture, and second for her depth of character, as she was willing to redress her word choices in light of another woman's concerns.
urlLink cadence90 : "...My use of the word Chick and the pajama party trope are deliberately provocative. I think the 'girl power' movement -- which in essence says that girls can be girly and be taken seriously anyway -- has some real currency. I love the fact that Martha Stewart gets paid billions for 'womens' work' that previously wasn't worth two cents. But you know what, it might just be stupid!... "
