March/April 2006
AN OLD BUTTON HAS reappeared recently among young feminists at the University of Saskatchewan. &#8220;This is what a feminist looks like,&#8221; it reads. This button illustrates at least two concepts that are key to understanding the current state of feminism in Canada. First, feminists are diverse. Feminists don&#8217;t all look the same and don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

To what extent is it appropriate or possible for men who resist patriarchy to participate in the feminist movement?

&#8220;You can see in the very movements of their bodies, forced painfully into the narrow space of permitted masculinity, moving inside an invisible cage, how the supposed winners of the gender game suffer [...]]]></description>

&#8220;The lack of a gender-based analysis of welfare reform is having a devastating effect on the health and well-being of women.&#8221;
THE PRAIRIE WOMEN&#8217;S Health Centre of Excellence recently released a report entitled &#8220;Women and Social Assistance Policy in Saskatchewan and Manitoba,&#8221; which looks at the impact that changes in Canadian social [...]]]></description>

A university education is widely accepted as the &#8220;great equalizer,&#8221; the means by which class mobility can be achieved. But un-partnered mothers in academia&#8212;including undergraduate and graduate students, contract academic staff, and, to a lesser extent, tenure-track and tenured faculty&#8212;face structural barriers that put these women at a great disadvantage relative [...]]]></description>

RAPED, TORTURED, AND BEATEN, her hands and feet tied with barbed wire and her skin covered in puncture holes, Maria Isabel Veliz Franco was found dead in Guatemala City in December of 2001. Yet while the murder of this fifteen-year-old girl sparked some local media attention, she was already just one [...]]]></description>

by Stephen J. Ducat
Beacon Press, 2005
OVER THE LAST DECADE the emerging field of study known as &#8220;masculinity studies&#8221; has begun to generate a great deal of debate and attention.

I COULDN&#8217;T HELP BUT CRINGE when Jack Layton suggested during one of the election debates that electing more NDP women to Parliament would somehow civilize the raucous atmosphere of Question Period. There is no doubt that having more women in Parliament is a good and important thing. But the expectation that [...]]]></description>
