Best blogs for women's rights issues

This list is fantastic and I think pretty comprehensive. I already read a bunch of these and will be adding several more to Google Reader: 50 Best Blogs for Following Women’s Rights Issues. For what it's worth, a few favorites:
I would add, too:
  • fbomb, which is done by teenage girls
  • Bitch blogs, from Bitch magazine
  • The Feminist Agenda, which doesn't update as much as some but is still interesting
  • The Hathor Legacy, which "searches for good female characters in TV, books, movies, comics and other media"
  • and, a little controversially, Jezebel, which has more pop culture, is less into feminist theory, and frequently fights with Feministing (which is also fantastic)
Anyone else got anything?

  1. I LOVE sociological images and I LOVE Jezebel and I LOVE Feministing. I have to check out this link- good find! I'm always looking for more stuff to delve into.

    I have to say- I met the Feministing crew in September 2009 at the Women and Power conference at The Omega Institute. I have to say I was a little unimpressed with them. They seemed to give off an air of immaturity and lack of focus. They were at the back of the room blogging and sometimes you could hear them talking or laughing about something irrelevant to the speaker or activity that was happening.

    Additionally, when there was free time they weren't very engaging to people who went up to meet and speak with them.

    They are brilliant women who started something so cool (SUNY grads! WOOP WOOP ALBANY!) but I just expected more.

    Sorry to burst a potential BUBBLE!
