Lisa Jablonsky asked Anita Diamant:

I LOVED this book! It's on my Favorite Books shelf, thank you! Every woman read it when released, leading to deep conversations. And then this: I described it to a male coworker: in biblical times women were banish to tents when menstruating, a time of great bonding for them etc. He looked at me w/the straightest face & asked "So it's a period piece?"! Have you heard other clever word plays based on the title/subject?

Anita Diamant I never heard that one before. I think it's kind of funny.
I actually haven't heard many such things, so thanks for the smile and for your beautiful endorsement of The Red Tent.
