23rd Carnival of Feminists



You'll find lots of good feminist reading over at the 23rd Carnival of Feminists.

This awesome resource is brought to you by Lingual Tremors.

This edition has a special focus on women and health care because issues of access and treatment--whether we're talking about breast cancer, emergency contraception, rape, or a visit to a specialist for further tests--are ultimately issues of control.

[T]his edition of Carnival of Feminists borrows as its charge, the original Our Bodies Ourselves as a way of thinking about women, and control over their own bodies as catalyst for social change. And, of course, this edition also features a smattering of what's been on the blogosphere this week, from the best of Boob-gate 2006 to a very funny (and wretched) piece on "Rear of the Year."

Enjoy!
