In Bitch PHD, there were some things that I liked/agreed with her about her definition of feminism and others that confused me. I feel like the new def of feminism is all about equality for everyone, but one thing that I liked from her def was that she knows and makes it aware that there are differences between men and women, which is true. Not just physically but mentally and personality wise, probably with the help of society, but nonetheless there are differences.  Towards the end, she says, "I believe in principles, including the principle that people matter. I believe in forgiveness and second chances..." I noticed that she starts to almost give a summary of her personality/beliefs. I always figured that defs of feminism were about the general public...not really about one's personal beliefs of how they look at life. 

I never got interested in the whole blogging rage like livejournal and what not. and i always wrote papers without using "I" and strictly in the third person format.  Why do you think these two (personal and academic) styles should merge? Should there be a separate genre for this?
