Take Back the Conversation From Anti-Feminist Misogynists and Trolls

A brilliant piece by Julia Hardy,

Game of trolls: how I took on the internet sexists with Misogyny Monday

As I've written in the past, We gain stronger connections in Sisterhood if we can share information, such as databases of known misogynists.

(Read my own piece, here:

MATRIARCHY AND THE NETWORK OF SHARING: FEMALE-LED COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS)

Anyway, Julia discusses a very important topic: standing up to and NOT being silent regarding internet abuse and trolls.  The 'ladylike' thing of ignoring the misogynists (don't feed the trolls!) is just another way to keep our voices down.

Read Julia's article for some great news and ideas about taking over the conversation, away from anti-feminists.
