Surprise! I was thinking of suggesting that if "seminal" was a compliment to be used only
for male authors who create something new and valuable, would not a feminine author
similarly creative, have her creation regarded as "ovarian". Imagine my dismay to find my
ten buck CD distionary say there ain't no such word. Solecism or not, I demand its creation!
(Alas, one very dear to me died of an ovarian tumor. The word was all too real then.)
