additional feminist material


Caitlin Moran talking about the small issues in your own home that needs to be addressed.
which feminism does.
she wants issues like comfort eating or man hating to be re-evaluated so it is not just associated with women or the old fashioned feminist.



the debate over who does what in the house will always incorporate feminism and possibly men saying they are feminists when they dont do any of the cooking or cleaning



Germain Greer makes an interesting discussion on offensive words and their actual meaning. but when speaking to the public, the overriding comment for me was "a lady cant say the C word, because then she's not a lady" .... how completely archaic. if the C word is slang for female genitalia why shouldn't we say it? and who decides that certain words are offensive, why isn't hobnob rude?
