r/fourthwavewomen
This is a place for "not the fun kind" of feminist. Here we insist on the continuing relevance of a feminist critique. We hope this space will be a home for growing numbers of women who are disillusioned with mainstream/3rd wave faux-feminism. Authentic feminist analysis is being silenced. Thoughtful, open, honest discussion is desperately needed. Welcome to the raddest feminist club on Reddit!
