Feministing

Welcome to the class blog! Here, we will discuss, analyze, debate, critique, and - sometimes - argue on how a "featured" blog goes about accomplishing its goal. (What its goal may be is open for discussion as well.) In keeping with the course theme of activism, we will look at feministing.com. Time and again, this blog is ranked as one of the best on feminism in the twenty-first century. It examines pop culture through the lens of gender and/or sexuality. I think you will enjoy what this site has offer. For your comments, do not spend a great deal of time summarizing an article or a debate; instead, focus on the rhetoric of this blog site. Think "how," not "what." For more information on how to do this, reference the posts on carmen under The Blog Project. I can't wait to read what you guys put. Best, Nick White P.S. Good posts are usually in the 200-250 word range; great posts--300 words; exceptional posts--beyond.
