About

The Gender Blender Blog was created in an attempt to demystify and de-stigmatize feminism, and to explore how the personal is political in our daily lives. Using a feminism lens to approach social justice work, we hope to begin, engage in, and inspire critical and constructive conversations that examine both the intersection of multiple oppressions and the intersection of multiple privileges at Tufts and the world at large. We aim to be as inclusive and diverse as we can in our coverage of news and issues, demonstrating our support for and solidarity with other progressive social movements (such as food justice, environmentalism, queer politics, etc.) We welcome feedback – suggestions, criticism, questions, thoughts, reflections, etc. – but we remind you to please be respectful if/when you comment. Thanks and happy reading!

Feminist Love,

Maddie (your friend from NJ)

This is Maddie. I hope you remember me, I’m from the Mad Farmer’s Collective, I’m 11, and Uncle Chip was just showing me your cool “gender blender” website. Although I’m probably not as much of a feminist as you guys are, I think this is a great website and that you should keep going. Currently I’m coming back from Maine, and I stopped by New Jersey with my parents, and, when we were looking at the pretty card you gave him, he showed us your website. How are you, Tiffany? Does Alex write for your website? How is she?
Yours Truly,
Maddie, from the Mad Farmers Collective 🙂

Hi Maddie!!! This is Alex. Thanks so so much for reading our website. I’m so glad to hear you like it! I’ve been slacking on the posts lately, so it’s mostly been Tiffany, but I do write for the site. We miss you and the Mad Farmer’s Collective a bunch! I’m doing well, getting ready to go back to school. Tell Aram and your parents we say hi!

Love,

Alex
