Reply #42: I am not seeing any "wave" of feminism as a bad wave to get onto, and see [View All]

them all as one "wave," and not several. That Oldsmobile commercial never had much impact with me.

So this is in fact your mother's and great grand-mother's feminism, IMO.

If you are going to hop onto a feminist wave, I suggest a different list of exponents. Katha Pollitt would be very high on my list, well ahead of Hillary Clinton.

I think feminism rightly begins with a time none of us can remember in temporal terms. It begins with Sappho's poems. More recently it is manifest in the life and work of Georgia O'Keeffe.

Adrienne Rich.

Maya Angelou.

Dar Williams.

Etc.
