About Women's Space
The Women's Space site (formerly "The Margins") is a site
created by women in the hopes of offering support, information, and
encouragement to women and girls and to men and boys who would like to be
women's allies as well. Our perspective is distinctively and
unapologetically woman-centered. Our specific goals are as follows:
1. To provide links and references to the thought, ideas
and work of woman-centered leaders;
2. To provide ongoing analysis and commentary on news,
culture, history, society, cultural trends, media and current events from
a distinctively woman-centered perspective;
3. To establish and enlarge radical feminist/lesbian
separatist discursive space on the internet;
4. To give voice and a presence to radical feminist women
on the internet and in the world.
The content of our site reflects these
goals and distinctives. This does not mean that we do not find value in
exploring all sorts of ideas and theories including those which oppose our
own. To the contrary, we value and seek lively debate and invite the same
vigorous scrutiny of our own ideas and work that we apply to others' ideas
and work. The information and ideas provided here are
those which in our view offer the best hopes for a new kind of world in which
women's lives, ideas, priorities and work are valued equally with those of men, a world in which subordination of all kinds is rejected in favor of respect and mutuality. We long for a world in which power is shared and dominance over
human beings, nature and the earth are rejected, a world characterized by
love, respect, peace and justice for all people.
The amassing and posting of links and information here must necessarily be
an ongoing, never-ending effort and we invite your participation and
feedback. Whatever or whomever you believe we've left out, please let us
know! You can e-mail me, Cheryl, at cheryllindseyseelhoff@g-mail.com. If
you are a woman, please also feel free to join our Women's Space internet
community which can be found here.
