Flora was a descendent of the Borgias. Gauguin boasted of having this heritage. It would be interesting to have the early history of Flora's family (Trista y Moscoso).

Flora Tristan is also the name of a Peruvian organization "Flora Tristan", which works to protect women in peru today. Shannon Schmitt

[edit] Format of text

The text under "The Worker's Union" was "strung-out" on one line, requiring a lot of scrolling to read. I copied and re-typed the text, so it's now legible. I also changed the information from present tense to past tense ("[she] recognises" to "[she] recognized"; "solution is to act" to "solution was to act", etc.) I also changed some of the language to be more objective (last sentence of the 2nd paragraph originally started with "By feeding into the male ego, she opens...").Esaons (talk) 16:37, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

There was no citation for the quote in the first paragraph, but I've indicated that one is needed.
