Four days ago, Equality Now honored one of my favourite people on the planet, one who is forever at Number 1 on my personal list of potential SFeraKon guests of honour Joss Whedon, for his work on gender equality.
He gave this speach at ‘Make Equality Reality’ event in Beverly Hills, California. Here, in his own words, he digs into the nature of the word ‘feminist’ and proposes an alternative.
Considering where I live, I think I will have to stay a feminist a while yet.

Bad ass women in horror movies
The reason I loved Buffy so much was all that pettite blonde beating the shit out of a lot of bad guys thing. Yes, I was way older than the teenage target audience, and I still loved it.
There were women however who did survive in/the horror movies. (Not for the faint of heart).
