Where Are All The Female Bloggers? Part Two
So the blogosphere is alive this weekend with outrage at the mistreatment of Jo Swinson by the Torygraph. EVERYONE is linking to James Graham's masterful post on the matter - as I did myself, yesterday. Which just goes to show that even though female bloggers like myself and Caron have been talking about something for a day or two, it's only REALLY important when one of the blokosphere picks it up. Even when the substance of the story is misogyny. Irony much?
Standard disclaimers for a post about feminism: this is in no way meant as an attack on James who is and always has been a good feminist ally, nor is it an attack on any of the people who have linked to him - there's one in particular who was the focus of my last "where are all the female bloggers" post, who might be feeling a bit picked on at this point. That is absolutely not my intention. All this post is, is a dispirited observation on how the world works.
