Articles of Interest

Hello my fellow classmates.  Just in case any of you are really excited after tomorrow's presentation. I thought I would pass along a couple articles that I really enjoyed, and I think you might too.  Doesn't everyone want to spend their weekend reading feminist theory? lol.  I thought I would make it available if you so desire to consume the fruits of my labor.

And... here are a few website.. I know I will not get to even a small portion of these in class, so I wanted to share them with you in an eco friendly fashion. (aka: no handouts) Take each website for what it is, a little media literacy can also go along way and finding out who made each site and what their particular biases are.  I do not propose that these are all fact and without flaws, but expanding knowledge is never a bad thing.... enjoy.

and now... for a little giggle... This article is particularly entertaining (in all the worst ways) and troubling.  I see the points she was trying to make, but really has a tackless way of going about doing it, and she references an already controversial display as her one reference point of why "feminism is irrelevant".  I didn't want to be judged of only showing one side though! ;)
