Feminists

framework or the bullet needs to disappear. As I wrote to redqueen my initial read didn't find that bullet offensive but I have to respect that to some members it felt exclusive of some post 2nd-wavers.

I agree that we should be able to discuss such differences without a battle but the history of this group proves that in the past battles are exactly what we got. That I or you don't find the phrasing exclusive is irrelevant if other members do. It's sort of like the "bitch" wars out in GD. Because some members like us find it highly offensive to describe women that way I'd like to think that other DUers would set aside their personal opinion on it for a bit and try to understand why we feel that way. Same deal with 2nd vs. 3rd wavers vs. some other perspective within the umbrella of feminism -- I'd like to set a tone where all can be heard without verbal fisticuffs. If we start out with an SoP that feels offensive to members, that's not very welcoming.


FWIW, I'm pretty much baffled by some post 2nd-wave theories but I'm willing to listen.
