but surely you could say that of any political /social movement
communism for instance - not the same in south ameica as in russia or china.. maybe the forms that we have thus seen have ben pants but that doesn't mean as an ideology it is pants.
what you are saying sgm, is ...look here is feminism and it can be whate er yu want it to be, so come on tell me what you think it is, so that i can argue with you and show you that it actually can change and cover your political/social ideology.
i think that feminism as an ideology is divisive to the social and political cause of the people. whilst we have splinter ideologies that look after the special interests of certain groups within society, gender, sexuality, race etc... is a great divide and conquer tool, becuase whilst everyone is in their little groups thinking of their concerns with regards to gender, race etc...it is a barrier to comming together as a people, which sadly we don't do anymore and mass protest hasn't changed anything since the poll tax - which is really really sad.
we are a nation of individualistic navel gazers and i think ideologies based on the part of a people rather than the whole peoples is divisive.
what is really sad is that the limit of peoples knowledge on the subject mean that they think as a woman they have to be feminist.
that feminism was right for votes and feminism won all the things we enjoy today as women that we once didnt
and thats not true is it?
