Mothers For Women's Lib
http://www.mothersforwomenslib.com
This is a group blog dedicated to feminist mums and mums-to-be the world over, where we can discuss matters which are important to us.
Feminism changes a mother, and motherhood changes a feminist - here is a place for us to talk about raising our children as feminist mothers, the challenges we face, or feminist issues which are especially important to us as mothers.
As feminist mums, we have a unique take on this thing we call “feminism,” and we have a lot to say!
