Feminists: What feminist groups/organizations are you a part of?

Question

I'm hoping to branch out more in my real-world feminism, and that has led me to wonder: what organizations are you all a part of? Would you say that being a part of such an organization has been rewarding? Either way, what is the most rewarding experience you've had, as a feminist?

Answer 1

These are the groups I check out on the web or get daily bulletins from, since I was involved for years with and had leadership roles in NOW, LGBA groups, and Outdoor Adventure groups (I also get regular web bulletins from my local feminist and gay groups):

Feminist Majority Foundation Online:

Answer 2

I really enjoy being a Young Feminist. The networking opportunities are endless. Besides, being in the company of other feminists will open you up to many different ideas within feminist philosophy. I would love for you to check it out!

The only bad thing about some feminist organizations is that you have to pay dues. That's why campus organizations are always great.

Answer 3

Feminists for Life

www.feministsforlife.org

This group actually embodies the ideals of true feminism , such as the original feminists.

Answer 4

None anymore. They seemed to be only for white professional women & ignored the rest of us competing in a man's world. I was a mail carrier for 20 years. I had to work twice as hard to get half the respect. (I was on street routes, so it was physical labor).
