Aware's old guard have alienated many women

WHY are the recent goings-on at the Association of Women for Action and Research (Aware) seen as a "hostile takeover"? It was legitimately executed and the old guard lost an open election.

The association should consider why it has lost the trust and support of women. The fact is, over the years, its activities have alienated many women whom they claim to represent. The old guard supported causes that many women do not identify with, yet all these were done in the name of sexual equality.

If the old guard members have ceased to speak for women in the mainstream, I guess it is time for them to go.
