Contemporary : : feminism tries to teach us that women are oppressed by men. Like Kate, : : you understand that women are just being what they want to be. It is no : I'm not totally sure which article you are replying to... but anyway you are : right. Kate is unideological, and ideological warfare of the kind well-known I'm assuming you guys are talking about me and the discussion I was having about why I believed Kate Bush was a feminism. I did recieve some interesting and intelligent replies. Yours are not among that group. Feminism is not about hate and neither is what I wrote. In my honest opinion, Kate Bush is a feminist and her work is feminist work, whether or not you think so or she thinks so. Feminism is not a dirty word and you can't make it one. I consider anyone who writes or sings or draws or whatevers about what it is truly like to be a woman and how being a woman is played out in modern society to be a feminist. Is that a hate filled statement? Feminism isn't about hate; it's about loving women. So deal with it. And I do think a discussion of feminism is relevent to the board, though I'd prefer not to have it because I understand that the main mission of gaffa is to spread Kate info.
