Debating Society: What Women Want..

DETAILS

Expired

EVENT INFORMATION

What Woman Want…Fun, Freedom and end of Feminism!

We are delighted to welcome Ella Whelan of Spiked Online to debate this topic.

Is feminism preoccupied with frightening women? Is painting women as oppressed a positive change for women’s freedom? Or are we in danger of reviving a reactionary view about women’s autonomy and capabilities?

Is it time to start saying #NotMe?

Chatham House rules applied
