	feminism - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		Feminism is a social theory and political movement originating from a belief in the principle that rights, privilege, status and obligations should not be per se determined by gender.
		Feminism became an organized movement in the 19th century as people increasingly came to believe that women were being treated unfairly.
		Opponents of feminism claim that women's quest for external power, as opposed to the internal power to affect other people's ethics and values, has left a vacuum in the area of moral training, where women formerly held sway.

	The Dissident Feminist: Schools of Feminist Thought
		I wanted to give some idea of what feminism means to different women who claim the label as their own on this site--after all, the very idea at the core of this project is to illustrate that not all feminism falls under the ball-breaking reverse-double-standard militant stereotype that is so prevalent today.
		But this appears not to be the case: "equity feminism" is a term that has been at the center of controversy within feminist circles since at least 1994, and certainly has more real-world relevance to feminist policy than does the ridiculous and inflammatory non-movement called "feminazism".

		Pop feminism is a variety of feminism related to misandry and often a consequence of gynocentrism.
		Some groups believe that pop feminism has already instigated the creation of laws that discriminate against men, particularly in the fields of criminal and family law and sexual harassment civil codes.
		In contrast to traditional media where women have often been stereotypically portrayed as helpless but tend to also be portrayed as fundamentally good or innocent, in pop feminism women are portrayed as powerful, aggressive (but not belligerent), highly intelligent and even extremely capable physically and mentally (particularly in a role as a heroine).

		Feminism, the ideology that supports uplifting the status and improving the rights of women, has been one of the most influential political ideas of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
		Since its inception, it has been both hailed as a profound liberation of society, and condemned as a philosophy of victimhood, responsible for the breakdown of the nuclear family and the degradation of society in general.
		In spite of this, feminism has changed the American social order, from the superficial, such as media portrayals of women, to the deepest underlying assumptions of science and religion.

		Feminism appears to be under attack by the popular media once again.
		It is interesting to note that Betty Friedan would never consider herself an uber-feminist, as she denounced the feminist movement as having gone “too far” several years ago.
		Camille Paglia, notorious for her claims that feminism has gone “too far,” her pro-man rhetoric, and her adamant dislike of Naomi Wolf, would be outraged to hear her name associated with the likes of Wolf and Steinem.

	Is feminism dead now? Modern Women 'Happy To Be Housewives'
		Although the Life Style Extra article states that 75% of women would like to become married before they have a baby, it does nothing to explain why about 50 percent of marriages break up and why 30 percent of children are forced to grow up without the presence of their fathers in their lives.
		Feminism may be dead or dying, but let's wait before we begin to rejoice about its demise.
		Feminism, radical feminism that is, may be dead, dying or merely stagnating and withering on account of the ravages of old age, but the social revolution spawned by the feminists is a long way from being finished, let alone having been defeated.

	Ilyka Damen: Feminism, the Mainstream Media, and Pop Culture
		I have to address one issue in the section, addressed by Down and the Conservative Princess, which is that feminism and female perception in the 70's had something to do with aiming for crunchy-granola, meanwhile now women are aiming for the Nair-perfect stairmaster lifestyle that we all know and love.
		See, this is the problem I always have when I pay attention to "feminism." I don't question the motivations of the movement; I don't think feminists are, by definition, hairy man-haters (or whatever), and I agree with a lot of what the feminist movement has to say (abortion being a HUGE exception).
		You could have engaged any of the commenters from feminist blogs who came over and left their thoughts on what feminism is. You could have followed any of the dozens of links I spilled this week and found people discussing issues that are important to you, and given them a piece of your mind.

	Althouse: The likelihood that a single 40-year old woman will marry.... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A great deal of pressure was created, urging women not to "forget to have children." And yet it's also likely that some women would give up and think: I'm 35 and not married, so I need to focus on trying to accomplish something that's within reach.
		Things like feminism are the official version, and pop cultue is sort of like collective gossip -- the subversive commentary in the margins, the real subtext, the place where people both process and resist solemn ideas about how things "ought to" be.
		Pop culture is the intestine where grand ideas about social change are digested, and parts are assimilated and parts are unceremoniously rejected with loud, rude sounds.
