Shelf Life: Feminist Blogs

By Danielle Maestretti
Published on February 17, 2008

What follows is a roundup of some of the blogs I found most intriguing in exploring the feminist blogosphere for the article Feminism 2.0; it is by no means inclusive. I’ve placed the blogs in categories for ease of use, though of course many are much broader than their headings suggest. I’ve tried to include only blogs that update fairly regularly.

Something missing? Post suggestions in your comments, and I’ll happily add others to the list.
