Feminism...

isn't often linked with enjoyment - but the do a nice job of it here. (via bookslut) I really like Beatrix Campbell and want to read more of her stuff. I saw her speak once about young men who are in situations of poverty (in the UK) and how feminism helps all involved. It was amazing.

The idea of a shorter working week being good for all is a great one. I wish it would catch on. I work half time - and from time to time I wish I did a few more hours, and we'll never be rich (but we do fine) and I love being able to be at home to make holiday cards, interesting veggie pate with tahini and so on! Balance is the key.
