On the Agenda… THE F WORD!!

By Jessica Huse

Lots to write about. First, a beef with some of the women in Bust Mag. this month. I love the magazine but both Chloe Sevigny and Patti Smith make a point to not call themselves feminists. Smith uses the whole “humanist” thing and I am a humanist too but I have to be a feminist first to get there. I have a whole rant that I hope to get to before I leave for a road trip Sat. to NC and MD for b/f and my family reunions… that will be a story in itself.

Kudos though to the Mormon women in the magazine identifying themselves as feminists – interesting read.

I am excited to do some reading and writing on my trip. I was real upset about Chloe b/c I see her as such a feminist… why not use the words. Will dissect more when I am not late for work.

In the words of Ani DiFranco… “The coolest fucking F work deserves a shout. Why can’t all decent men and women call themselves feminists… out of respect…”
