Edit: if you are looking for the linkup on Thursday just after midnight, it might not be there yet. I was delayed. It'll definitely be up in the morning, though.
A couple of weekends ago, I was in a conversation on Twitter in which Rachel said she sometimes doesn't feel feminist enough. I said I felt similarly since I consider myself a feminist but I also am in a very traditional role: stay-at-home mom. Suzannah, From Two to One, Caris, and Rachel all jumped in. I think the topic is ripe for discussion.
So, for this link up (which I'm figuring out how to do!), please try to answer the following:
- What is your understanding of feminism?
- Do you consider yourself to be a feminist? Why?
- Do you feel feminism is compatible with traditional female roles?
- Do you feel at odds with feminism in any way, and why?
- How does feminism relate to your faith?
- Any other questions that come up that I haven't thought about. If you think there are other questions people should think about, just put them in the comments, and then I'll add them in to this post.
I'll post my entry next Thursday (February 7, 2013) and then you can come and link up your posts that day or any day after that. I'll schedule it to post around midnight in case any of you like to stay up late writing.
