Feminism and T'fillah; expressing the Feministic side of Judaism or a Manifestation of Me-Tooism?

Thanbo paraphrasing me [RRW]

R' Richard Wolpoe has said that he doesn't understand why women's tefillah groups feel so bound by the traditional forms of public prayer. Since they are not actually commanded in daily public prayer, they have the freedom to compose their own liturgy, to say prayers that are meaningful to them, as women in the past have done through their own compositions called techinot, personal prayers, which were often collected and published for other women to use.
