So, this is number one in an (hopefully) ongoing series of images, videos,
photos, comics, posters or excerpts – anything really, which shows
feminist ideas at work in the everyday world<\/strong>. What I want to do
with this series is to show that as well as all the things that can make us
angry, upset or just plain mystified, there are also lots of instances where
people are positively engaging with feminism by coming into contact with it
in their daily lives and as part of their normal routine.<\/p>\n
My offering for today is a music video that stood out from the usual in
that it’s a hip hop video that does not contain women in bikinis.
Quite the reverse, it explores a subject rather dear to my heart –
the different societal rules and roles for men and women. The lyrics
are here<\/a>, if you want to sing along. Oh, and there is some awesome
dancing in it too, with women doing moves more usually associated with
their male counterparts.<\/p>\n
Looking forward to receiving your own contributions – and thoughts
on the subject. Please email us with them –

feminism”.<\/p>\n
