I know this is a long shot... Does anyone have the first chapter to Eve Sedgwick's "Epistemology of the Closet"? Google Books only has the Introduction for viewing, but I know the first chapter has been reproduced in a number of books and I was hoping someone knew where to find it online or had it as a file they could pass along. Thanks for any/all help!

hi! I’m working on a project at the moment that aims to encompass a multicultural feminist society and the study of girl gangs and their fast paced, but sneaky, movement within our culture. so far I have made paper out of tampons and am in the process of making a pulp out of bras in which I intend to print images and articles of writing on said topic. I have a small collection of things I have...

Interesting piece by Julie Bindel about the Icelandic decision to ban strip clubs. Among other things, she talks about "...the fact that feminists in Iceland appear to be entirely united in opposition to prostitution, unlike the UK where heated debates rage over whether prostitution and lapdancing are empowering or degrading to women." I'm interested to know to what extent that debate...

Hey everyone! I'd love to see some lively discussion in this awesome community! I just watched the first two episodes of NBC's new show The Marriage Ref online, and thought it was ripe for feminist response! The first episode really changed my perspective on Tina Fey, who I thought I could expect to go somewhat against gender norms - but woah did she ever try to psuh people into the gender...

I don't buy newspapers very often, since I take ages to read them, and they just clutter up the house with paper that will have to be thrown away. But the cover of today's Independent had a headline about the 100th anniversary of the women's movement (which they apparently date from the founding of International Women's Day), and a bunch of talking heads, several of whom I recognised and was...
