Feminist Fatale: Feminism, Cycling & the "Untrammeled Woman"

bikeladiesunite:

A great article by Liz over at Feminist Fatale. She found herself, like so many women before her, feeling empowered when she rode her bike in the harsh streets of LA. But when she helped start a women-only night at her local bike co-op, reactions became hostile in a terrifying and deeply anti-feminist way. Although neither I nor any of my female cyclist friends have experienced this sort of vitriol, it’s quite saddening that anyone still does. Definitely worth the read.
