A natural response is to change the word feminist to a word with fewer stigmas attached. But inevitably the same thing will happen to that magical word. Part of the radical connotation of feminism is not due to the word, but to the action. The act of a woman standing up for herself is radical, whether she calls herself a feminist or not. - Paula Kamen

fword is a feminist collective...

mine, yours, ours, something anything everything. a place to discuss and share what it is to be a woman today, a feminist today, feminine today. being us now. being a word, many words, which have taken on negative connotations and define us as stereotypical creatures, often full of hate. often hated. here are stories, essays, poems, and photography focused on us. to change minds? maybe. to express ours? yes.
