Link to an interesting [http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/comment/my-sister-was-called-a-whore-and-a-slut-by-men-driving-by-just-for-walking-home-by-herself--but-sure-women-are-equal-now-more-or-less-8334920.html comment piece] in The Independent about this.
I guess what I find difficult to articulate to people is why I think feminism still has battles to fight, especially when it comes to "jokey" comments people make about women that either perpetuate gender prejudices or undermine women. Things like the prortrayal of women on tv and stuff like that.
I'd love to hear how other people respond when told that "women are equal now (more or less)"
