Latest round of comments on features and reviews

By Jess McCabe | 10 June 2009, 23:29

April’s comments on features and reviews are up and ready to read.

Readers wrote in about Eirwen-Jane’s takedown of some bad science blogging, Wisrutta’s thoughts on being a female geek and sexist expectations and Sarah’s account of Smash Miss Contest’s protest of the Miss London University pagaent.

We also, as usual, got comments on a wide range of features and reviews from the archives. Head this way for a look.

Have your say

In order to keep this blog as a feminist and friendly space, comments will be subject to some rules. We do not seek to censor debate: the beauty of the internet is that anyone can set up their own blog or website to express their views.

This blog is a safe and friendly space for feminists and feminist allies. Debate and critique are welcome where it is constructive and deepens analysis or understanding. Anti-feminist comments will not be approved. We get to decide what's anti-feminist.
All comments must be approved by one of the bloggers. For this reason, there may be a delay before your comment appears.
No sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, classist, ablist comments, comments which make personal attacks on any blogger or commenter, or comments that are otherwise deemed offensive by us will be posted.
Trolls will be banned from commenting. We get to decide who is a troll.
No anonymous comments - please feel free to use your real name or make one up, though.
Be nice.
