Comments on: Feministing’s Jessica on Majority Report http://www.amptoons.com/blog/archives/2004/10/05/feministings-jessica-on-majority-report/ Feminist, anti-racist, pro-fat, plus whatever else we feel like talking about.

Like I said on the show, at this point I think that whatever is going to appeal to people is cool with me. I think that it is possible for young women to fun with our activism; but we need to have the political awareness and info to back it up when questioned on our beliefs (which tends to happen a lot when you're a young woman)... it seems to me no matter what feminists do, we get shit. if we're all serious then we're humourless feminazis, but if we're funny and/or sexual then we shouldn't be taken seriously...

Second, you are right in that feminists get flak whatever we do. So after careful thinking over the issues I tend to go with what I believe in and what is fun. One might as well.
