The movement to get equality between women and men.

"Feminism is the radical belief that women are people too" :)

I am a Woman.
I am a Person.
I can do any thing that any other person can do.

I am equal to any one

Some men cannot do what i can do.
Some women cannot do what i can do.
We are all people.

I have heard over the feminism section is rather scary?

Its a movement that seeks equality between the sexes. There are many different strands of it though

microserf · 25/04/2011 21:47

There are different schools of thought about what feminism is. Wikipedia it.

I am a feminist and proud of it. But I haven't posted in the section yet. Not scared - too stuck on AIBU....

Just finished Natasha Walters new Book - Living Dolls
Im using it in my dissertation, I would recommend it, as it reads very well!
It is post feminist and the by-line is - the return of sexism.
Every Woman should read this!

I cannot find the feminism section. Please someone, tell me where it is.
Thank you.

my mum had a great saying

'i don't know what a feminist is
but i tend to be called one when i refuse to be treated like a doomat'
