]]> Comment on Feminism is hard by Deanna http://www.holycow.com/mel/2010/04/25/feminism-is-hard/comment-page-1/#comment-1947 Deanna Mon, 26 Apr 2010 19:45:31 +0000 http://www.holycow.com/mel/?p=729#comment-1947 Agreed! I spend a lot of time having internal debates with myself on issues - the whole, I know it is fun but what about the political aspect of it. I really enjoyed kick ass and I enjoyed the fact that we finally see a young girl who doesn't want to be a princess. However, is the movie really transforming or shifting that dynamic - no. You don't even want to know the hours I have debated the Niqab legislation and I still don't have an answer. Part of the problem with addressing the systemic issues in our personal actions is we each have our own unique experiences that we draw from in making any decision. There is no possible way to get a consensus on how to solve the issues that effect us the most. There is no one right answer. This is hard for me as I am super task oriented - "what is the problem, how do I fix it?". I guess it is why I hide in a very niche area of feminist work - with the law there are very specific questions with very specific answers. It works for those of us who are not comfortable with ambiguity. Agreed!
