Evolutionary psychologists specialize in coming up with primal, survival-related explanations for The Way Men and Women Are, carelessly tossing around – not to mention way overusing – words like “hardwired.” (Translation: “That’s just the way it is – don’t dare dream of this changing any time soon! Abandon hope!”) Take this recent gem from psychologytoday.com: [...]

Check out my new essay in Shape Magazine! As editing and space limitations go, this is the simplified CliffsNotes of my story, but I think it’s a positive message and I’m thrilled to share it. It’s posted on my blog. Enjoy!

For Mother’s Day, check out the first article I ever had published. It’s still one of my very faves, written soon after my feminist consciousness began emerging – and how! – and spurred to action by the book The Mommy Myth , by Susan J. Douglas and Meredith W.

I want to announce some happy news to the Feministing community. I turned my 10-year-old daughter, Gracie, on to New Moon Girls magazine a couple of years ago. I think it’s truly a radical magazine, giving girls ages 8 - 12 a safe place to learn about themselves and the world. They illuminate a lot of inspiring, positive topics, but they don’t [...]
