Feminism 101

feminist section of bookshopNew to feminism? You might want to check out this Feminism 101 blog.

Constantly updated, the blog collates posts from the feminist blogosphere to answer questions typically posed by those who are new to discussions of gender equality.

The only caveat is that it seems to be somewhat US-centric, but the basics should apply to anyone from anywhere.

It answers common questions, like what is that pay gap thing you keep talking about? But it also debunks those stereotypes of feminists as hating men, lacking a sense of humour and so on. (via Feminist Allies)
