About
The ‘F’ Word
Collective of feminist activists writing about gender, patriarchy and intersectionality. Swearing when we have to.
Note from the editor

We’re a group of writers with diverse experiences and perspectives. Our shared goal is radical gender justice, a movement connected to and supportive of other forms of anti-oppression work. Right now, we’re pretty dormant. We recommend looking around for other gender justice collections on Medium — there’s so much happening out there!
