Geez Louise! Another Wimmin's Blog

Slate has a new blog called The XX Factor. The blog is written exclusively by wimmin, and while I am sure it will include some first-class contributors, I have some issues with wimmin's blogs in general and so-called feminist blogs in particular.

Some of that has to do with self-indulgent piffle like this (sorry, I couldn’t help myself), but the larger issue is that feminists need to be part of the broader conversation, as Dana Goldstein aptly puts it, and not segregated.

We’ll see.
