I haven't the stomach to investigate further but suspect that this is deeply significant (at least in her what-passes-for-a-mind). <br /><br />I've come across this a few times: it usually means that the writer feels she is regarded as insignificant as a person of gender by the hegemonic phallocentric military-industrial complex. Or something.
