This was the ideal of the whole feminism movement - for women to be able to choose what they wanted... that women do something - like shaving your legs Lise - because they like it, not cause they feel they have to!

The feminism of the 60s/70s had that whole anti-male thing going

Post-modernist feminism says that we choose what we want - if we want to make-up our faces, shave our legs/pits, we should - but it should be our choice - not societal pressure.

If we want to choose to study, to work or to stay at home to raise our babies... then we should be able to choose any of those as a valid option and feel no guilt or recrimination from others in our communities.

I am def a post-modernist feminist. I like to dress pretty, I like to look like a slob, sometimes I do my hair nice, other times I dont use a brush for several days. I wear makeup to work, sometimes (takes me ten minutes though).

I bite people who tell me I should or shouldn't do something cause I am a girl!
