Double X Thinks Feminism Is Both Dead and Hurting Us. ZOMBIE FEMINISM!

DigiBitch post by Kelsey Wallace, May 13, 2009 - 11:01pm; tagged betty friedan, catfights, Double X, feminism, feminist blogosphere, jezebel, Slate, zombie feminism.

We're exhausted here at Bitch headquarters today by all of the weirdness that's happening on Double X, the new online women's magazine that is a version of the eponymous Slate blog. Apparently, the folks over at Double X don't want to identify as being feminist, but they sure love talking about how feminism is dead. And out to get us. ZOMBIE FEMINISM!

Since Double X launched yesterday, it's been chocked full of infuriating, Backlash-y articles like "Whine, Womyn, and Thongs: How feminism has failed", and "How I Got Bored With Feminism".

We don't know about you, but we're disappointed. (And we also need to figure out the best way to fight off this new undead feminism before it eats our brains.)
