I started posting about feminism here because I saw a need. Compared to pretty much every online community I'm a member of, or have been in recent years, there seemed to be a dearth of discourse on feminism. Conversations would arise somewhere on Steemit or Discord, and I would respond with a general explainer post.
Now, however, the landscape seems different to me. @TeamGirlPowa, where I'm a mod, has become a more explicitly feminist server, and I've become aware of more women writing about feminism and gender on here. @isabellelauren, who I mentioned in last week's Sunday Feminism post, writes wonderfully about feminism. @mariacaffrey's LGBT+ posts are invaluable, and @malloryblythe's post Is There Really an Advantage to Being a Woman on Steemit? was great and stirred up quite a debate. All of these women are members of TGP, most of them new to new-ish members.
And so I wonder, is there any point in me still doing these posts? Should I switch my focus, write more about allyship? I've resteemed posts by @isabellelauren and @mariacaffrey, and will likely do so again.
I'd like to hear what people think. I'd especially like to hear what feminist women and trans folk have to say about this. Definitely the women mentioned, but also @steampunk-penny, @TeamGirlPowa founder @limabeing, and others Thanks in advance for your thoughtful comments.
