I am a feminist and...

I'm a Feminist and a 'Miss' and a SHAM.

Ooh , like the sound of black nail polish on toes. Does having nail polish on all the time not kills your nails? Does mine.

I am a feminist and an athiest who gets on quite well with the Vicar and goes to Church once a month accompanying my currently Christian DC and because of the Vicar we've got I don't think it will do her any harm; I'm also (mostly) a Housewife (DC's at school), I wear foundation and powder because I'm sick of being told I look hot and bothered and I feel naked without black nail polish on my toenails.

I'm a feminist and I hated every minute of my working career and couldn't wait to give it up to be a housewife & mum...so much so that I quit my career before I'd even managed to get pregnant, although that followed soon after.

I'm a feminist and I call myself Miss not Ms - if it was good enough for Sylvia and Christabel Pankhurst it's good enough for me.
I'm a feminist and I call myself a housewife not a SAHM - if housewife was a good enough word for Chaucer it's good enough for me. Anyway I'm a stay at home mum-to-be rather than mum at the moment!

I don't rule out ever having a career again, but whatever I do it won't be in the corporate office world I used to work in. I'd never, never go back there again.

I am a feminist who can't go to work without foundation (can manage camping and supermarket without). I always shave my armpits and do legs when swimming. I also love the Twilight books and films.

I am a feminist, I'm married, bisexual, a mother, a worker. I care about my home and family, and being mentally stimulated, I don't care very much about how I look but am slowly being brainwashed into trying not to look too rough.
I don't like it when people find me grating because I challenge them on stuff, but if I don't challenge them I might as well hide myself away.
I am a liberal feminist with understanding towards radical and separatist feminists. I try to minimise my impact on the environment but am not willing to give up meat.

Wilson, I am a walking contradiction in case I needed another reason not to read the DM!

I am a feminist, don't do hairy, have been known to totter in stilettos, wear make-up, iron husband's shirts and have been married to the same husband for donkey's years. Oh, and I hate positive discrimination (women are far too good to need it )

I am a feminist and I don't (wouldn't dare) leave the house without wearing makeup and I almost always wear heels.
I am a single-ish parent and have been in two long relationships with controlling men in which I became a complete doormat. I cope on my own but would much much rather be in a relationship.

I like this thread :).

I am a feminist and a single parent. I WOHM and do most of the stuff round the house, because I'm the only adult (1 DS, 1 cat).

Although I am really tired and skint a lot of the time, I love my life.

I am a feminist, I shave my legs, have my eyebrows waxed and wear make up. Oh and I have my roots done every 3 weeks!!!!

Iam a feminist and my career is secondary to my kids, and I care about looking nice and being thin.

Damn, wish I'd posted under my own name if people are going to nod at me :o

^ THAT says it all.

I am a feminist and I don't like it if anyone calls anyone else "unfeminist" for anything short of saying that men are better than women.

I'm a feminist, mother and I like wearing dresses and make up.

I'm a feminist and I shave my legs, wear dresses, like pink, do the housework, like men, am a single parent, abuse survivor, rape survivor, volunteer, student, working class, and a bloody fighter.

Not in the violent method mind.

I am a feminist. I am a single parent, I work in a library, I like underwear, i like men, i like shoes. I could go on and on and on and on.

belle if there's a DM journo reading this I believe you just scored a hat trick

I'm a feminist and I sometimes play the long game by not challenging every dodgy comment to which I am witness.

I am a feminist and I often do what I need to do to get by in the patriarchal society in which I live.

I am a feminist and I no longer think that saying I am one as a default is an option.

I am a feminist and I don't think it's just about me.

i shaved my legs last week as the hair was poking through my leggings - kept brushing my shin as i thought i'd picked it up off the carpet

I am a feminist, (albeit a new recruit) a single person supporting herself, a teacher, a company director, a rape victim

And the hairs on my legs are now about the same length as my head hair!

I am a feminist, a lone parent and a banker
