I have named this site The New Feminist in an attempt to erase the negative stereotype that has lately overshadowed the feminist cause. Contrary to popular belief, feminists are not women who hate men. They believe in equality for everyone. Anyone who says differently is not a true feminist. Now that we have gotten that out of the way...
I am working towards eventually hosting a forum for feminist ideas and a history of feminism. The image above is Emmeline Pankhurst, a leader in the suffragette movement in Britain. Ms. Pankhurst is known for her sometimes militant demonstrations that led to an astonishing 12 arrests in just one year. Please also note that the websites below are provided as resources for feminist issues. Click on the link below to learn more about why I call myself a feminist.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton, a well known 19th Century feminist revised the Bible to create The Woman's Bible. She felt that the Bible degraded women, an idea that many of us still agree with. This site contains the entire work separated in to chapters. Check it out.

"When they come around to make the movie of your life, when someone comes around to write the biography of you, as that feminist icon or that revolutionary, world-changing activist you are about to become, for God's sake, make it more than anything small or pretty or over-romanticized. Make it as revolutionary as this tradition in which we speak has been. Make it so dangerous that people will be scared and unnerved when they read it. Take risks. Make illegitimate children. Get lots of lovers. Try some stuff! Make some difference. Without that courage, without that outside agitation, there will be no future of feminism. There will be no change in this country."
