I was just having a chat with a colleague of mine who is from the USA following a TV programme that mentioned a couple of feminist writers. I hadn't actually heard of any of them but she was very aware of them.
I did a little bit of googling of them and, to be frank, I was a little bit 
. They, generally, seem very immersed in US culture - not surprising given that three of them are American - and seem to go on about a lot of things that I really don't recognise.
On the other hand, the British writer she mentioned did seem to have some very valid points to make - although I think that I would disagree with some of them.
So, a serious question. What do the more well read members here - and given that I've never read anything at all from these authors it won't take much to be more well read than I am - think about these authors?
1 - Generally agree
2 - Generally disagree
3 - Who is she, never heard of her?

To get a full disclosure out of the way, I don't identify myself as being feminist to the same extent as a lot of the more vocal posters here do, which - to my perception - is quite rad fem. I think that a more nuanced debate on things would help rather than the quite common righteous indignation that often seems to happen.
