In Michaele Ferguson’s article “Choice Feminism and the Fear of Politics,” she writes that,
“Choice feminism evinces a fear of politics. It aims to avoid having to make judgments, to avoid taking controversial stands that might offend and exclude, and to de-radicalize feminist
claims” (248). Do you agree with this claim? In your response, make sure to:

• Explain Ferguson’s argument, including her definition of “choice feminism” and
whatever term you decide to use, especially if you decide to opt for “third-wave
feminism”

• Use at least one other reading from Tuesday, August 10 – Snyder-Hall or Hirschmann –in your response

• Think about the stakes. Why is this important, especially in movement politics?
