Just out of plain curiosity,I was wondering how many feminists are lurking on punk ottawa? I always want to post interesting articles relating to feminism but wasn't sure if anyone here would be interested.

Anyway, raise of hands?

I am a male, heterosexual at that, and have always loved many feminist theories with reguards to various subjects. So I would surely read articles if you posted them, as long as they are not over the top preachy.

I married a woman. Does that make me a feminist?

Well... I believe women should have equal rights and opportunity... and while this is pretty much feminism I avoid any association with the word due to extremists. I'd read articles though so long as they were sane :)

I am a feminist. And a man. This is something I've come into later in life as I never gave the movement a chance (really beleived in the whole "lesbian man-hater" stereotype) but after being exposed to some introductory theories I am on-board.

The feminists I've met have also become some of the most open-minded and inclusive people I know.

That's a little odd I'd say. It's a word to describe a beliefs.

It's kinda like saying you wouldn't want to admit you were a member of some religion because of extremists that may exist within it.

Kind off topic:
I'm of the opinion that that media likes to throw the term feminist around negatively so that people more often associate it with a man-hating definition.. which is not feminism clearly.

I believe in the advancement of all oppressed peoples, and have used the label Feminist to describe some of my views. I'm also an avid reader.
