Penelopemachine
I'm not active on this page and also do not know how to block a user, but those who are might want to take some kind of action in view of this: Special:Contributions/Penelopemachine.

I think I got the lead back to how it was before their edit, but please do also check my manual revert, which was not intended to introduce any changes.

Does feminism mean one thing?
A standard definition of "equality of the sexes", but this doesn't include e.g. questions about whether men should exist or whether it would be better for women if they didn't exist. (Cf. What Do We Need Men For?: A Modest Proposal) DenverCoder9 (talk) 18:19, 11 May 2023 (UTC)


 * I don't understand what you mean. Are you suggesting that Carroll's book is "a feminism"?  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 18:24, 11 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Certainly the standard definition of feminism striving for gender equality remains the central point of feminism, no matter what other aspects are being discussed. Gender equality is the core idea. Nobody seriously suggests a world without men; it's highly impractical to continue the species otherwise. When E. Jean Carroll says in her book that all men should be shipped to Montana where they can be contained and re-educated, she was forcing the reader think about the ramifications. She was not actually proposing that as a solution. Her little mental exercise has not been described as part of feminism. Binksternet (talk) 20:06, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
 * This page could use an inclusion of the subheading decolonial feminism. Over on the decoloniality page it is defined as:
 * Decolonial feminism[edit]
 * Decolonial feminism reformulates the coloniality of gender by critiquing the very formation of gender and its subsequent formations of patriarchy and the gender binary, not as universal constants across cultures, but as structures that have been instituted by and for the benefit of European colonialism. Marìa Lugones proposes that decolonial feminism speaks to how "the colonial imposition of gender cuts across questions of ecology, economics, government, relations with the spirit world, and knowledge, as well as across everyday practices that either habituate us to take care of the world or to destroy it." Decolonial feminists like Karla Jessen Williamson and Rauna Kuokkanen have examined colonialism as a force that has imposed gender hierarchies on Indigenous women that have disempowered and fractured Indigenous communities and ways of life.

 * I'm not convinced that this would be due weight for the main Feminism article. There's a section titled "Black and postcolonial ideologies" but we can't include a paragraph all specific "[school of thought] + feminism" ideas. — Bilorv ( talk ) 15:15, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 14 October 2023
Three items:

In the first paragraph of the section "Sex industry", the phrase "expression and a in a woman's right to control" is wrong, possibly missing words. Should say "expression and a [missing stuff] in a woman's right ..."

In the first paragraph of "Affirming female sexual autonomy" change "readical" to "radical".

Same section, change "the right-the need!-to define" to "the right—the need!—to define" (replace hyphens with dashes) Fustican (talk) 20:26, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Protection Level
It seems like even with the semi protection, this article still has disuptes, and edit wars. I request you extend its protection level. 74.15.254.221 (talk) 02:40, 16 October 2023 (UTC)


 * @74.15.254.221 I don't see any recent vandalism so I'm unsure why that'd be necessary — Panamitsu (talk) 02:42, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry I meant to say edit wars and disputes not vanadalism. But either way, I think the protection should be extended. 74.15.254.221 (talk) 02:44, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
 * See WP:PROTECTION, it is only in policy to increase the protection of a page if there is disruptive editing (which there hasn't been recently). — Panamitsu (talk) 02:47, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
