Wow. Just wow! Things are really heating up over at Dr. Chesler's blog. If you are a Feminist and you'd like to observe one of the bigger hurdles facing the Fourth Wave ... you really MUST come over and read. Not only today's response to Naomi. But also Phyllis' piece that started the whole brew-ha-ha. And Naomi's piece before that.
It's really high time, in my opinion, that the Second and Third Waves of American Feminism faced off in the boxing (uh, er debate) ring. Doncha think?
For research and accuracy, I'll put my money on Phyllis.
Can't rule Naomi out though... cuz she has the high falutin' connections.

Uh, Naomi?
ReplyDeleteHowsabout you quit showing off your own breasts to all and sundry, before you sing the praises of state imposed "modesty" on other women?
If covering any part of a woman's body that men choose to objectify appeals to you, maybe you could start with the smaller subset that men fetishize in these here United States and maybe raise that neckline a little? Maybe loosen that jacket a bit? (bonus: you'd get to breath a freer!)
