I’m Not Taking A Break From Feminism

But it was still interesting and enjoyable to debate Janet Halley’s book, Split Decisions: How and Why To Take a Break From Feminism on an Author Meets Reader panel here at the Law and Society Annual Meeting. The other participants included Bridget Crawford, Darren Rosenblum, Daria Rothmayr, Adrienne Davis and Janet Halley herself, who was generous with her time and attention towards the panelists and the audience members, even the people who disagreed with her a lot, which included me. I’ll write in more detail soon about why I think many of her central claims are wrong, but I’d still recommend reading the book. It is well written and interesting, and will make you think hard about what feminism is and what it means to you.
