"The women of Bikini Kill let guitarist Billy Karren be in their feminist punk band, but only if he's willing to just "do some shit." Being a feminist dude is like that. We may ask you to "do some shit" for the band, but you don't get to be Kathleen Hannah."--@heatherurehere

If Yer In New York City This Weekend...

sassywho helpfully points us to an interesting gathering of men: Black and Male in America, A 3-Day Conference

C.D. Knight, of Other and Beyond Real Men, organized the event. If you're around, go show your support. (Note, apropos of an ongoing discussion about women's and men's only spaces, that Saturday is men-only.)

Michael Eric Dyson is the closing night speaker. Sigh. Here I am stuck on the left coast.
