I am curious to find out what others believe a radical feminist is. I've been characterized as being a radical feminist by a number of people who've done substantial work in women's studies (formal and informal), including my spouse. No one has ever defined radical feminism very well for me and I would like to get others' ideas on the definition. I haven't ever thought of using that particular combination to describe my beliefs but that may just be because I tend not to label myself at all. With a bit of coaxing I'll call myself a secular humanist and historically I've been described as a revolutionary feminist, which may or may not be the same as a radical one. But I don't ever acknowledge being a white male; I may acknowledge physical facts, but that does not mean I admit to thinking or behaving as a stereotypical white male. I encourage your comments both over this newsgroup and by mail. Thank you all. -- Roger Noe ...ihnp4!ihlts!rjnoe
