I don’t know, Euodia, although it made for… interesting… reading. It looks to me like a list of points compiled from suggestions made by a group of people.

If you’d really like to know, Molly at Adventures in Mercy might know something about it. She’s a recovered “Prarie Muffin” type who was deep in. (http://adventuresinmercy.wordpress.com/)

Rephrase:

Does anyone know the history of this document – where it originated and why?

The PM Manifesto is posted/written by one author, but it’s phrased in such a way as to imply group adherence. My question is, what group? Or is this just a loose affiliation of like-minded individuals? You’d probably have to wander over to the PM link to see what I mean.

Is this a group, a model, a mindset, denomination, worldview, a loose association…?

I just had a thought –

Are you asking us to define the people who follow this document?

I’ve never even heard of them before, and I really can’t say what sort of box they fit into.

It does make me wonder what kind of manifesto we here at Emerging Women would write, though.

I don't understand your question. Could you rephrase it?
