We are linked and not ranked. Ever butty is equal, everyone is the same.

I've been called a "baby killer" and I've been told I should die and that I'm ruining women's lives. Those accusations hurt for sure - and I pause when such labels are applied to me - but because they come from people I don't necessarily respect, I have an easier time moving beyond them.

Empowering women isn't for women, but for the world.

[T]he presence of feminism in our lives is taken for granted. For our generation, feminism is like fluoride. We scarcely notice we have it - it's simply in the water.

The truth is that our democracy is a work in progress. We are all its founders. We are all learning that we are linked and not ranked.

Women have to do all of the catching up. So we are disengaged and overburdened. Sounds like it is time we ditch the complacent fluoride-in-the-tap-water feminism and get reenergized and reinspired.

I'm motivated by injustice, which is embedded and constant and wrong - not by a vernacular soundboard.
