There are some really great feminists, but like in any other movement, reasonable people are shoved aside and replaced by the most radical. I guess it's the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" syndrome. I like Christina Hoff Sommers and Camille Paglia, both make a lot of sense. I got to spend an hour or so with Camille when I was in Washington at a conference...what a wit!

I've never came across the "squeaky wheel" idiom before.
Attributed to this poem:
"I hate to be a kicker, I always long for peace, But the wheel that does the squeaking, Is the one that gets the grease."I just heard it in one of those old sayings "the squeaky wheel always gets the grease." I have never heard the root.
