Mmmm. Right. I'm with you on that, the love-hate relationship. I have
my own set of beliefs that I call "feminism", and I'm proud to call myself
a feminist, but what I mean by feminist is not always what other people
mean by feminist. I joined a radical-action feminist group on campus
here, and it was such a disappointing experience, to see that the thing we
thought was common to us all was really so different--different enough to
be divisive, really.

So, I'm very curious about what feminism means to people here, and where
it comes from in your life, where it takes you. But I'm not sure if it's
appropriate, being only half-relevant to the list.
