Well feminism is feminism yes but we can all disagree about what is or isn't feminist, and many feminists do disagree with each other on lots and lots of issues - so it's not at all clear what feminism is. I'd be really interested in hearing what transpeople think about feminism too.

On this very thread. Go back to where you asked my what about feminism I celebrated. You'll have received an alert about it at the time and another when I asked you to comment on it in August.

Congratulations on being the first (and only) woman to post on this page. :cool:

We've all been talking about other aspects of feminism for weeks, while she was away from the boards. Honestly it's like some of us have been reading a different thread.

Oh please. We're allowed more than one thread on feminism. And frankly, 'ghettoising' the subject to an area where men rarely go is a good thing. We're all really tired of having to explain ourselves. Fwiw I never go on that thread, but so what, there's plenty of others (now!) I can get...

...for trying that trick on me just now then? Ok. Also I don't think you should be speaking for most women of Urban tbh. IME we/they are perfectly capable of speaking for ourselves. You didn't answer my question about actually posting in celebration of feminism either. A simple no would've done.

I do think my mistrust of men is proportionate, yes. I also don’t believe men become women because they feel like women or identify as a woman. I think being a woman is a complex interaction between genetics, physiology, society and social relations, not something you can identify into or out...

...seemed to stall right about the time the marketing gurus convinced the world that the Spice Girls somehow represented the epitome of feminism. I would say that was the moment capitalism really worked out how to monetise feminism directly, rather than just hijack it as a way to double the...

Sorry, Kabbes, but you're making me feel like a right thicko. I do feminism by being a woman who tries to fight for her rights, where I can. An academic article that's aimed at other sociologists and not phrased in a way that outsiders are expected to understand is more interesting for...

I got it from baldrick on this thread :) Feminism and the silencing of women

New topic on this thread - why are women scared of feminism that centres females? Why is it almost taboo? This is based on the posts of the last few hours and is not open to men or men who identify as women (sorry) to comment on. And it's also not a question asking why those who are not female...

You said that feminism has nothing to do with men unless they are the perpetrators of violence. He said Really? What about inequality in the workplace and in the home? Surely feminism and men have something to do with that? Inequality is a relationship between men and women. You said, I don't...

This is how every thread about feminism ends, with a man kicking off because we're not talking about men with sufficient reverence.

It's a shame this has happened because this was a good thread. It's a good question where the feminism threads are. I did try to start a feminism thread a little while ago but it was closed down which nobody commented on at the time. I do think there was a problem with the most feminism...

Only insofar as it encroaches on the rights of the oppressed class of female. But this thread, nor I am certain, is this forum a place where intellectual conversation on the matter can be had. So we'll get back to talking about feminism that is for females over here thanks

And yes, I do get too upset when I see women becoming uncomfortable in feminism threads, and trans and intersex people openly saying goodbye to these forums. And this is one of those weeks :(

i see what you're getting at, but i wouldn't be surprised if many of the things which afflict working class women affected the women you hold up as success stories too. for example, the 'double shift' of paid work out and then unpaid labour at home.

Feminism isn't seen as healthy? I'm a knackered parent too and an ex raver (more fluff than crust), and no what the offside rule is. But unless it's men only round these parts, feminism is a healthy pursuit One could say we wont save the planet without the deconstruction of patriarchal...
