I was hoping to start a broad thread where we can ask questions, share thoughts, opinions, resources, acts.
Hopefully it can be somewhere that lurkers can ask questions instead of needing to start a thread of their own or ask on a thread of women already well educated on current issues (it's daunting).
Somewhere to share everyday rebellions and triumphs.
Somewhere to just check in and get stuff off your chest.
I'll start, yesterday I began my boycott of M&S and went elsewhere, it just so happened to be the same day I got vouchers for them through the post, they were ripped up and thrown away as was was the Lib Dem leaflet.
My husband has joined my boycott of M&S and the Lib Dems, he has also offered to carry stickers for womens rights so he can put them up when out and about. I have been talking non-stop and told him everything I have learnt, it is good practice for when I discuss it with others! I think being able to discuss it freely is very important.
My next act will be to check local doctors/council/school websites to see if they are using the term gender instead of sex.
I am currently wondering if it is a good idea to follow/comment/share womens rights pages on my personal Facebook? Does anybody do this or have you made a separate account?
Could any seasoned posters please share resources/websites/womens rights activists to look for, for those of use who are new.
I am pretty much hoping this thread will draw out the lurkers and be a jumping off point for anyone new to the feminism board.
