In light of recent events and the general ongoing crapshow, let's have a discussion about feminism, racism, misogyny, and the trials and tribulations of day to day living in a patriarchal society!
Admittedly, I'm very uneducated in the academic schools of feminism and would love to learn more, so let's learn together! But let's not just limit ourselves to feminist theory, let's talk about what your personal brand of feminism is, how you live it day to day, why you need feminism, whatever your gender may be, because yes! men benefit from feminism as well.
What are your hopes for the future? Your fears for the present? What do you want and need changed in our culture? Who are your feminist heroes and why?
I thought about noting that we should be polite in this thread, but fuck that. This is an angry topic, a painful and personal topic close to many of our hearts and lives, so politeness really doesn't have a place as things get heavy and difficult. But please, be respectful or I will end you.
So tell me, what have you done to smash the patriarchy today?
