The Return of Feminist
Things have been quiet at [info]feminist lately, so naturally it's time for another display of petty bickering tinged with an ideological superiority complex. This is actually relatively small, but, to my mind, displays a shocking enough amount of cluelessness to be worth posting.

[info]lifeisacabaret posts a link to an article about Colombian women who are going on a sex strike until their boyfriends agree to give up gang activity.

We can only hope that those women weren't acting under the illusions that their actions were feminist, because [info]stratyllis is happy to jump right in and explain to them that they aren't.

Watch as she hammers that point home against all detractors, explains that race and national origin have nothing to do with it, and engages (or is engaged, depending on your point of view) in a pointless argument about what race she may or may not be.

On the side, [info]angelvomit thinks that they just shouldn't date gang members. Okay! Problem solved!
