If you mean feminism "chat" that is the refuge for the nice women who dont want to have to talk about men imposing their rights over women's realities.
As I say this has been since it was first set up the forum about women's rights.
MNHQ can call it what they like. The content is created by the users.
If you want to "chat" about feminism nothing to stop you having a chat (which of course wouldn't be feminism as it excludes talking about the attack on women's sex based rights as it just isn't "kind" to do that).
Were you part of MN when they created this false distintiction without consultation and making absolutely no sense whatsoever?
