Introducing Fifth Wave Feminists (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The iconic Gloria Steinem died yesterday and here's how I feel: We owe her everything. So I won't spend this post recapping the gifts she gave us, and instead say bluntly that I can't believe she lived long enough to watch us go backward, particularly the rollback of Roe v. Wade, which we all knew would have devastating deleterious consequences on the mission of feminism. Women of my generation inherited freedoms that Gloria and her peers fought like hell for. We grew up believing the trajectory
Patriarchy is a Wily Beast (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I was around 35, I remember noticing women 50+ were disappearing from the workplace. But I was too absorbed in my own career-ascent to think about why. And because financial services was – is – a male-dominated industry, I see now how my blind-ambition taught me to curry favor with men because they held the power. I’m not making excuses for it, but I also refuse to toss myself completely under the bus, because patriarchy is a wily beast. So much of how we behave is learned over decades of w
The Moral Bankruptcy of the Ruling Class (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This morning I wrote that the backlash against the ruling class has begun.For decades, we have treated wealth and corporate success as evidence of something bigger than financial achievement.

Read excerpt
I am a rabid feminist. Why? Because I grew up in a fundamentalist Christian household, where women are literal servants to their husband and her children are the hunting grounds for their cruelty. By age 7, I had seen enough. Yes, by third grade I had concluded that it’s completely abnormal for a human being, who sports their own brain stem, to give up agency to another person just because of your gender. And the fact that this is even “a thing” is a reminder that we live in a patriarchal world,
The Expiration Date on Female Agreeableness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last night I binged Mare of Easttown until 3AM. I don't know why it took me so long to watch it. Kate Winslet is not just an incredible actress, she's a feminist icon for refusing to cave to society's expectations.So let's talk about Mare.She's the opposite of warm. She makes bad decisions. She pushes people away. She's also carrying more grief than most of us can imagine. I sat there finding her totally unlikable, which made me wonder if Mare is unpleasant -- or was bias getting the best of me?
