The Cotillion -- Themed dance week
Do not miss visiting The Cotillion this week. Instead of the usual one-day carnival of links, we are offering a week of writing from the members based on a singular topic. Cassandra offers up this week's topic
One Step Forward, Or Two Steps Back?New writing posted each day!!
Feminism was supposed to free women from outdated and demeaning gender stereotypes; to empower us as people and put us on a more equal footing with men. Yet now, when women have more education, money, and power than ever before, we seem to have surrendered to the very culture we once viewed as oppressive and sexist. Have women finally transcended sexism and if so, why aren't men jumping on the same bandwagon?Will women ever view ourselves as more than the sum of our body parts?
