Feminist and proud

I've been a feminist since I found out what it really was, not the media image of it. Paxman this week bleated on and on about how white middle class white men feel marginalised in the BBC.

Finally given you a taste of your own medicine have we, Paxman? Got some idea of how it feels to be maginalised have we? Good.

Before you all start slanging me, let's look at the evidence. 3000 years of male oppression, versus, oh about 40 years of feminism. I don't think we've got them on the run yet, but we've certainly got them moaning. There's a long, long way to go, but this is a good sign.

If you don't think you're a feminist ask yourself this question:

Do you believe in getting the same money for doing the same work as a man?

If so, you are a feminist.

Nuff said.

Yours in strident mode
Lucy
