I want some new DVDs.
I love ice cream.

I'm none of the above.
Dedicated to the image of the female hero in Greek mythology and in fact, as it is expressed in art and literature, in the physiques and feats of female athletes, and in sexual values and practices. See http://www.ifi.uio.no/~thomas/lists/amazon-connection.html
Anarcha-feminism recognizes the patriarchal domination of women as a key part of a society thoroughly founded on hierarchy and coercion, and seeks to organize women with other oppressed groups - in particular, workers and people of color - as part of a systematic fight against all forms of hierarchy, domination, and government.

My #5 is:
Antifeminism
actively opposing feminism; views male supremacy as natural and/or necessary.
My #6 is:
Womanism
"Black feminism is sometimes referred to as womanism because both are concerned with struggles against sexism and racism by black women who are themselves part of the black community's efforts to achieve equity and liberty" -Barbara Omolade
My #7 is:
Radical feminism
Radical feminist analysis identifies patriarchal sexual politics as a fundamental organizing principle pervasive in all aspects of modern and historical societies. Radical feminist activism works to organize a mass movement uniting women to abolish sex-class on political, economic, and cultural levels.
My #8 is:
Eco-feminism
Theory that rests on the basic principal that patriarchial philosophies are harmful to women, children, and other living things.
