In defense of the sanctimonious women's studies set || First feminist blog on the internet

Miss USA

Head on over to the Huffington Post and check out my piece on the Miss USA pageant. I’d love to hear your comments here or over there.

And this would probably be a good time to announce that I’ll be blogging fairly regularly over at HuffPo. Feministe will remain my primary blog, and I won’t be cutting down on my posts here, but I should have something up over there about once a week.

Call for Suggestions

Tigtog’s put up a link for an open suggestions thread at Finally, a Feminist 101 Blog.

Got a troll asking you disingenuous or stupid questions and don’t know where to tell them to go (other than hell, of course)? Drop on by the open suggestion thread and make a suggestion for a post to which you can later refer trolls (or the genuinely clueless). With a sweet smile and a suggestion to come back once they’ve covered the first-year course material.

Or, a suggestion to cram it. Your choice.

Shameless Self-Promotion Sunday

You know the drill: toot yer horns.

UPDATE: Okay, you don’t know the drill. Promote specific posts, with descriptions, so people know why they should visit your blog.

Y’all really gotta brush up on your self-promotion skills. Oy!

Finally!

A Feminism 101 blog! Called, appropriately enough, Finally, A Feminism 101 Blog.

It’s there for your basic questions about feminism, because we’re not here to school you in the basics.

Muchas gracias to tigtog, the Hoyden About Town, for putting this together.

Shameless Self-Promotion Time!

I don’t mean me, I mean you.

Not real fond of the term “blogwhoring,” but this is your opportunity to do just that (and if you can think of a better term, please leave in comments). Leave a link to a post of yours — or someone else’s, even — with a brief description of what it is.

Your horn, it is to toot.

UPDATE: People, people, work with me, work with me. When you post a link, post a link to a post, not just your blog in general (that we could get by just clicking on your name). And just as imporantly, tell the class what the post is about. Because you’re burning to tell the world about it. It’s the Best! Post! EVAR! The Post To End All Posts! Uberpost!

‘Cause, you know, otherwise it’s nothing but a blogroll.

This is going to be at least a semi-regular feature, so post-by-post blogsturbation works better in this format.

Though, really. Cats. Herding.

Criminy.
