I will be editing the Wikipedia article "Witchcraft" by adding a section on Witchcraft and Feminism. Still deciding wether it shall go under one of the subtitles already set, or made a subtitle of its own. I will also go through the article and make any changes for spelling or grammatical mistakes if I find any.

Witchcraft, Feminism, and Media

 * Wicca has been describe to bring young women empowerment through the lively portrayals, although they subordinate to the original of Wiccan literature. Therios show that there has been a growth in the Neo-Pagan religions because juvenile religious seekers are shown a world of feminism and spiritual paths in the more recent media through fiction such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the Harry Potter novels. Even some more informative texts introduce the history of witchcraft to this young audience. Especially in North America where feminist ideals are prominent, they also show though the local Wiccan beliefs, aligning with equatlity and a better relation with eachother. Some Wiccan beliefs can also be found to be more compatible with liberal ideals such as feminism and the green movement. One of the main theorized reasons girls are attracted to Wiccan ways is to fight an uneventful life or mundain life and give them the "power" to control their own life. Empowerment is a main theme that is brought along with these characteristics of Wiccan belief. There has been a growth in accessibility for females to learn of the Wiccan ways because of the growth in internet media. Researches believe internet use gives the teenage girls the ability to participate in this growing movement though multiple outlets. For example, Reclaiming Witches of San Francisco is argued to be the second wave of feminism that have been redefined as a religious movement as well.
