I’ve made my decision about Friday. I’ve started a post on early childhood learning. I am hoping it will give us a way into education. I’ll likely mention #yesallwomen, but it will not be the focus.
I’m moving my Feminist Friday posts to Part Time Monster starting this week. Several good reasons for that, but I’ll spare you the explanation.
Thanks to everyone who’s supported these discussions and kept them going since March with only one week off. I appreciate all the support – every read, every like, and every comment is important. I wouldn’t still be doing this if folks hadn’t responded and encouraged me to keep it up.
That’s all. Stay tuned.
With all due respect, why us early childhood learning a feminist issue? Isn’t it something everyone should care about?

It’s a feminist issue because that’s where misogynistic attitudes and behavior start, is my thesis.
The argument may work or may not – it’s early. But I need to make it.

Another possibly interesting aspect of early learning is how the gender stereotypes of boys are good at math and science and girls are good at ??? gets started. I took gender psych and child psych courses in college and it’s fascinating to see how so much of this is engrained from a young age

it’s totally something every one should care about, though.

I was trying to create the link from Feminism, our starting place, to Education in my recent blog post: http://comparativegeeks.wordpress.com/2014/05/23/the-purpose-of-education-for-feministfriday/
Education is something that has the power to impact Feminism locally, nationally, globally, historically. Far more than other things could do.
