Like Heather, I was struck by the use of the Spice Girls as an example of girlie feminism in the text, partly because they were so big when we were little. To me, what makes girlie feminism interestin ... |

Hey people...(I refrain from saying hey guys cuz we're not all guys) So this chapter was interesting, even if a lot of the stuff it went over was review. I liked the sidebars about feminism outside of ... |

Hey everybody...so I would have been second to post after Heather, but my computer deleted my posts twice, so I'm just going to sum up what my earlier post would have said and add my responses to what ... |

Like Heather, I enjoyed this reading-CSW is such a liberal place, and we so rarely give the proper attention/respect to conservative people and their opinions. I find, however, that reading conservati ... |

I liked this reading, because it was a contemporary take on the past. Also, to read something by a different author spiced it up a little bit. To me, the important part of this article was the ambigui ... |

First, I found the discussion about rape and domestic violence to be really interesting. I guess people just didn't have a common understanding about it because it wasn't discussed publicly.

As is evidenced by my first post, I think that consciousness-raising did benefit the second wave of feminism, largely because it allowed women to make specific connections between feminism and other i ... |

So, to answer Steph's question, I think that there is still value in CR-type groups such as the NYRW. Simply because people like to relate to a larger cause via their own personal experiences, I think ... |

Wow. Lots of good questions on this reading. Before I answer Olivia's question, I want to agree with her view that the ERA would have been a good reform that would help to ameliorate all forms of sexi ... |

Sticking to the format of tonight's posts, I think that the women's movement did not lose any breadth between the first and second waves of feminism. Although feminism did "stop" for about f ... |

Oops...I forgot to ask a question. Here goes: Are the roles of mother and citizen, worker and homemaker, mutually exclusive? Women today are known to try and "have it all", balancing these r ... |

Like Heather, I was struck by the reference to the "How To Be A Woman" article in Seventeen. There was a sort of fake, superficial happiness to women in the '50's, a cheery facade, that I f ... |

This reading did a lot to reiterate the truths in the Dicker. However, I feel like we have talked a lot about Black Women, but not about other women of color. Therefore, I enjoyed the information abou ... |
