Bloggy goodness here and elsewhere

- Top 5 Introductory Texts -Open thread here (updated) – please add your own recommendations
- A bibliography from ginmar – blog links in the first half and book recommendations in the second half of the post
- Women’s History – a brief outline of changes in women’s lives and opportunities since the time since pre-Industrial Revolution times until now
- Fiction – novels, short stories and poetry exploring the roles of women
- SF – science or speculative fiction (sci-fi, fantasy etc) is particularly attractive to many feminists because of the chance to read about characters in a world where our current gender/race/class hierarchy doesn’t hold hegemony (maybe).
- Some introductory Science Fiction for feminists from Rachel Swirsky at Aqueduct Press (inspired by this more advanced discussion of science fiction from a radical feminist perspective at I Blame The Patriarchy )
- Feminist SF – The Blog!
- When Fangirls Attack! compiles articles on women in comics
