Featured three months ago on Alternet, Feministing offers a “platform for [young] women to comment on and analyse’ issues affecting their “lives and futures”.
Quotable quote from Samhita Mukhopadhyay, one of the six staff writers for Feministing:
“If you are an activist and not reading blogs, you’re not doing your job. [The blogosphere] is a listening audience and an active audience. It could be anyone out there; an anti-feminist from Ohio, a housewife in Illinois.”
Hmm I’m hoping for an Asian alter ego of Feministing – am I being too idealistic here?
Gen-xi can be the Asian version of Feministing – perhaps not yet a forum but certainly a
sexy feminist blog. Three blogs entrie on feminine issues in week – now that’s definitely
a start.

Nay, think it would take some academics or subject experts to do justice to Asian women’s issues. Thanks for the vote of confidence though
