choose an idea from the text or from an online source by a feminist writer such as Virginia Woolf, Mary Wollestonecraft, Simone de Beauvoir, Adrienne Rich, or other and post it, along with why it strikes you as important. If the writer is from the past, do you think that the ideals she expresses have become outdated, or are we still working on them? Respond to a classmate’s posting.

“Are you a feminist?”
“This is What a Feminist Looks Like
In week one we studied the “waves” of feminism, first, second, and third. This week the text shows the branches of feminist thought today, to include contemporary liberal feminism, conservative feminism, socialist feminism, radical feminism, and the ethics of care. The videos “Are you a feminist?” and “This is What a Feminist Looks Like” also show what image contemporary feminists want to portray to the public. Compare and contrast two of these branches. Which branch of feminism matches some of your ideals and lifestyle (if any)? Do you feel that feminist theory has helped you to act or choose in any situation? What are some areas that you feel that feminist theory could be improved? Respond to a classmate’s post.
