Waiting for Agnes has a sensational response to my 10 questions about your feminist motherhood up over at her place. Loved the title she gave the post too. So poetic.
And here is a quick excerpt..
6. Has identifying as a feminist mother ever been difficult? Why?
Yes. Being the type of mother I am and the type of person I am means that fitting in with other new mothers has been a challenge at times. My ‘wanting to be liked’ side conflicts with my ‘opinionated and judgemental’ side. Yes, I want to be tolerant and respect other people’s choices, but I also want to speak my mind without being pigeon-holed as the freaky-hippy-lesbian mum.
Oh, come sit next to me opinionated types.
You can find all the many other responses in this series here. If you’d like to respond to these questions yourself you can either email me your answers and I’ll put them on blue milk as a guest post or you can post them elsewhere and let me know and I’ll link to them.
I’ve been enjoying this series, and this one particularly hit a note for me. I’ve referred to it in my post here: http://woozlewazzle.blogspot.com/2010/08/catalyst.html
Cheers!
