First World Feminism
What's the point of this website?

A fair question. Two quick answers:

1. Those of us lucky enough to live in the most progressive parts of the world tend to focus on how good we have it, and yet we still haven’t achieved true gender equality.

2. I’m over trying to pitch women’s magazines. If the story isn’t about slimmer thighs for summer, they’re just not interested.

This stuff is important, I’ll try not to make it too dry.

@KushielsMoon RT @Mama_JuJuBee Hubby just woke up. I said “Happy Father’s day” & handed him the baby. That’s a good gift,right? | LOL perfect gift!

@estystein Interesting how each holiday brings up different conversations about gender norms and expectations in the USA.
