Annie Shields

At the ITT List, Lindsay Beyerstein thinks that anti-porn feminist Gail Dines’ critiques of SlutWalk marches completely miss the point.

Women Cops, the White Male Brat Pack and Bicycling Towards Equality: Editors’ Picks, 3/27-4/2

Annie Shields

Annie Shields

Recent news about the Obama administration’s actions in Libya has generated some of the most absurd commentary on gender and politics we’ve seen. This National Review Online post is disgraceful, naturally (but has one of the best comment threads I’ve ever read). But neo-cons aren’t the only wrong-headed commentators. Over at The Nation blogs, Robert […]

Annie Shields

This week, the National Association for Female Executives (NAFE) named its 2011 picks for the 50 best companies for executive women–not be confused, mind you, with regular women.
