Message-ID: <11879@bloom-beacon.MIT.EDU> Date: 7 Jun 89 13:32:48 GMT References: <16890@paris.ics.uci.edu> Sender: ambar@bloom-beacon.MIT.EDU Organization: Emory U. Math/CS Dept. Lines: 15 Approved: ambar@bloom-beacon.mit.edu I think everyone defines feminism in a slightly different way. However, according to my definition, a man can be a feminist. I know lots of them, in fact I married one! (This is a cop-out - I'm not going to write down a definition of feminist because I find it hard to say exactly what I think a feminist is and because I don't want to start a huge debate on what the word means!!)
