A few posters claim US feminists have it all locked up in the good ole USA and equality is reigning the nation (I disagree); then they claim US feminists aren't focusing on global equality issues, like they should (hmm curious how people who aren't active in a movement and do what they can to run it down, feel they have the right to tell others how to run the movement).
So what global equality issues have US feminists been working on, and why are they important?

Of course US feminists work on or at least are interested in global equality issues I talk to them all the time about them!
Some issues are:
- Microlending in 3rd world countries to both men and women.
- Increased feminisation of poverty and how that makes more children more poor.
- Female genital mutilation.
- Honour killings.
- Reproductive rights in the 3rd world.
- Women in politics and NGOs in Latin America.
Those are Some global equality issues that I know that US feminists been working on. Why are they important is self-explanatory.
