Would it not behoove us to support our discussions with philosophical texts, and to discuss our points of view in good faith (that others are sincere and have also taken the idea of feminism to heart)? I think sometimes we forget this tribe is about feminist philosophy, and that there is also a "feminist activists" tribe.

Wed, November 21, 2007 - 12:06 PMi agree. i think that many of the recent arguments in some of the posts are more like personal bickering with no reference to philosophy feminist or otherwise. i've been wanting to post responses but most of the posts have little or no basis in philosophical argument and more to do with what the person posting just feels is right or just wants to say. i don't need formal arguments like those found in analytical texts but i am interested in engaging with others in reference to feminist philosophical texts.
