Are you talking about third or fourth wave feminism? There is an interesting take in the book Gender Trouble.
I’m surprised you’re interested in women’s sports. Did you catch the US Women’s Soccer match?
I missed it but got the gist from my guy friend.
Personally, I’m a huge fan of roller derby. They’ve
fully accept trans people. Love Suzy Hotrod. She’s such a badass.
My cousin actually plays roller derby, which is pretty cool.
And yeah, I’m interested. I watched a lot of the women’s World Cup this year, though I rarely watch pro soccer here in the US. I’ll occasionally watch a WNBA game (was super proud when my team the Seattle Storm won the championship), but I haven’t for years (I don’t watch much men’s sports either). I love women’s volleyball though, so I’ll watch it when I notice it’s on (also like watching lacrosse). I’m not a fan of women’s hockey though, not sure why.
As for which wave of feminism, I’m honestly not sure. I don’t consider myself a feminist so I don’t keep up on it, though I certainly support some of the less crazy proposals (e.g. equal pay, longer parental leave, etc). My wife considers herself feminist-lite, and I work with a few women who probably consider themselves feminists (though we rarely talk politics). I personally just prefer more equality and fewer top down rules and don’t really associate with any political movement (I’m registered Libertarian mostly to pump registration numbers for third parties).
