I agree. Not to mention I can think of a thousand reactions to the idea of 're-branding' 'feminism' that will end up with us being right back where we started, but now with extra accusations of being insincere in the cause.

Please read my comment again, as I full acknowledge that those people do exist, but they do not make up the majority of the movement. I'm aware of your commenting history and your personal axe to grid in this regard, but don't pretend like I didn't acknowledge this.

But I think the question is: do we rebrand because of associations our opposition deliberately created? The ball busting man hater feminazi is largely a mythological creation of conservatives, one they ran with for years, to push an anti-feminist, anti-progressive campaign to discredit women seeking to make 'gains' or…

Do you think celebs these days live in fear that every gesture or expression they make will be turned into a gif?

Oh, thank god someone else agrees. I hated that show.

She stared in the remake of True Grit a couple of years ago.

I haven't really been able to find the style of bra that works best for me any cheaper online at all, even through Fig Leaves or HerRoom. So I make a pricey investment into my bras, but given that I no longer have back pain or shooting pain through my shoulders, I am more than willing to do.

Well, I think there's probably some generational differences between a 70 year old, a 50 year old, and a 20 year old, absolutely, especially in how the experienced feminism. But that wasn't really what the commenter in my story was saying — her point was, sorta, that there was no one between the ages of (hers) and…

I just turned 38. I never really worried about my age either — until the last couple of years, where I realized I was more-or-less running out of time to have another child. Or go to grad school — I spent the majority of the last decade getting my husband through his PhD with the thought that I'd go afterwards, and…

A couple of months ago here, someone in the comment section complained/observed that the 'old' feminist leaders (women in their late 40s, early 50s) weren't going to have anyone to succeed them because they were shutting the young 20-somethings out of the debate.* I replied that there's this whole age range of women…

Yeah, when I finally got properly fit for a new bra, I went from a 44DDD to a 36G and I'm so much happier now. Everything fits!

The last time this came up, a bunch of commenters recommended Intimacy Bras. They've totally changed my life. I don't know if they have a store front near you, but they are available online. I suddenly have a selection of beautiful bras that fit really well.

We will have to disagree, but I'd like to note that at no point did I suggest that we should bring men into the fold at the expense of any woman. I was speaking in generalities that apply to anyone who is interested in embracing feminism. Identifying as a woman, unfortunately, does not make someone on-board, so to…

So I guess you don't watch the Simpsons then.

"And maybe this is because I'm younger than you, but I think a big problem that persists in feminism today is a lack of recognition of the inequalities faced by women who aren't white, straight and traditionally feminine. "

Oil.

I think you'd find plenty of feminists who have differing opinions of what 'feminism' means. He's got the basics (the I agree part) and quibbles a bit on things lots of other people disagree on (porn, etc). I constantly disagree with certain things said in the comments or in the articles here and I've been calling…

In a bid to get the show renewed, the third season had a distinct tonal change from the first two that was not just the result of her going off to college. Basically they tried to tone down the overt feminism of the show and in doing so, managed to flip all the way to the other side. It was really jarring and…

Because I want people who believe that women are entitled to same rights and responsibilities as men, to their own bodily autonomy, equal pay for equal work to embrace the concept of feminism.

Well, as long you got the point of the article.
