who's afraid of feminism

Why Not Feminism?

"It's anachronistic; no woman I know would unapologetically describe herself as a feminist. If the concept and importance of gender equality as an issue has crossed her mind, then there is only one acceptable way of communicating this: "I'm not a feminist, but..." for this read, "please don't think I'm a lesbian/man hater /being difficult..." In short, feminism is a dirty word, and only by denying it are we happy to use it in our vocabulary."
