A few other bloggers are picking up on this Feminism Friday idea (originally Thinking Girl’s idea), which I’m glad to see.
Last week Ilyka (Pandagon) had a cracker on Saying No to Passivity, while there was some good discussion here on Young Feminists and how they find feminist fellowship.
This week Amanda (Pandagon) and I both came up with different looks at compulsory femininity: Amanda took on the common points between headscarves, pushup bras and pantyhose while over at Hoyden About Town I look at how It Starts So Young.
If you decide to join in with a Feminism Friday piece, or if you already have done so in the last few weeks and I missed it, please leave a link in comments.

I’m thinking of doing this on a regular basis, and in preparation for entering graduate school in the fall I’m doing a self-imposed review of feminist writing
I just found out about Feminism Friday this morning when one of my friends blogged it. I loved the idea. So here’s my contribution – http://johanna-hypatia.livejournal.com/64833.html
