Feministing

Sisters Vanessa and Jessica Valenti began Feministing in 2004 The writing on Feministing was not exclusively political but also concerned feminist perspectives and observations from the staff's daily lives. Sex and sexuality were another frequent topic of discussion; it is sometimes cited as an Internet extension of the third-wave feminist movement. It was popular among young feminists. Feministing also had a comments section. Readers posted (sometimes heated) comments on posts by the editorial board and posted their own writing at their community portal. ==Staff==

As of September 2013, Feministing had three co-executive directors: Lori Adelman (Partnerships), Maya Dusenbery (Editorial), and Jos Truitt (Development). In 2015 Adelman was named as one of The Forward 50. Alexandra Brodsky is an editor and columnist. The other staff columnists were Chloe Angyal (Senior Columnist), Katie Halper, Syreeta McFadden, Sesali Bowen, Verónica Bayetti Flores, Juliana Britto Schwartz, Mychal Denzel Smith, Katherine Cross, Gwendolyn Beetham (Academic Feminist Columnist), Dana Bolger, and Suzanna Bobadilla (Interviews Columnist). The site was supported by advertisements but all of the writers had day jobs. Valenti continued to respond to articles using the comments forum, and Feministing writers frequently posted links to other work by both Valenti and Friedman. ==See also==
