  • The Root Cause of Rape - A Male Dominated Society
    A victim must fight against, not only her attacker, but her society, which, incidentally, is the root cause of her violation.
  • From a Traditional Life to a Radical Feminist
    Born into a very religious Mormon family, I was taught to accept very traditional gender roles. I witnessed first hand, the double standard that is the traditional marriage and family structure.
  • Occupational Segregation
    I work at a dual-diagnosis drug treatment facility. It is a 60 day in-patient treatment center where the clients are court-committed. This means that they have committed (usually) some sort of drug related crime.
  • Equal Rights and a Constitutional Amendment
    The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) has a very long and controversial history. When a comparison is made between the 1920's and the 1970's, the opposition to the ERA was extremely vocal, strong, determined, organized and ultimately successful.
  • Women and Reproductive Rights
    On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court overturned a Texas ruling that refused women the right to seek out abortions. This class action lawsuit affected the majority of the States in the Union by declaring their anti-abortion laws unconstitutional.
  • Women in the Law Enforcement Profession
    "Throughout their histories, police departments have remained remarkably stable, white, male institutions.... The entrance of women in large numbers changed the mix but police departments still tend to be ruled by white men" (Bouza 34)
  • Women in Prison
    Society fears the criminal. People do not want to be the victims of crime. So the idea that our government is 'tough on crime' makes people feel safer.
  • You Are Reading About a Radical Feminist!
    I am a firm believer and I live my life as a radical feminist. Our culture has subjugated women in an effort to control her sexuality and reproduction potential.
  • Help for Spokane Women in Crisis
    The most significant resource for victims of Domestic Violence in Spokane and Spokane County is The Spokane County Domestic Violence Consortium.
