For the first time I understand why people feel the way they do about feminism. I am taking a feminist philosophy class, which means that we're studying all the different types of feminism.
I am a bell hooks feminist. She's the first feminist I've read, and the one that strikes a chord with me. Because feminism is about compassion. It is intertwined with other forms of oppression. And it is a good thing. I do not believe that living in a lesbian separatist society is the answer. I'm not sure how cutting out the oppressor actually SOLVES the problem.
