[edit] Nikki Craft
Can someone please add/categorize Nikki Craft? Thanks. Dandelion1 00:47, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

- Hi, Thanks Dandelion for adding me in the list of feminists. The category I would go in would be Second Wave. Never defined or described myself as a lesbian in public or private at any time in my life, and never been one, so I deleted my name from the list of lesbian feminists and left it on Second Wave. --~~
Is it an ideology to be french? The classification is not very logical.
Can someone please define 'first wave' etc? It is not immediately obvious what this means. Thanks, Mark Richards 05:40, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Copied from Feminism
There's mention of it in the History section, but once I have some free time I'll try and expand/fill it out. I don't understand what you find confusing about List of feminists - it's broken in section of feminist leaning - within feminism there are some different ideologies and so forth. Thanks Dysprosia 04:36, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Can we link to the explanation where the terms 'first wave' and other ideologies etc appear? What I found confusing, was that I didn't know what the terms meant, and so didn't understand how the list was organized. I may be the only one, but a brief paragraph at the head of the list explaining the categorisation might help? Thanks! Mark Richards 23:53, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- Hi, I came back to the page because I have had second thoughts about being listed here as a second wave feminist. Good example of why it's not a good idea to try to fit one's self into categories set up by others. I never use that term and Wikipedia says it ended in 1980. I've been active from 1970 to 2006 and continue to be. I don't even agree with the division, though I would not associate myself with what has come to mean 3rd wave feminism so I'll start another more accurate category for "Radikal Feminism" which is how I categorize myself. --Nikkicraft 03:42, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ti-Grace Atkinson
I'm not yet ready to write an article on her, but I did want to place her name on this list-article. I noticed, however, that there is no Radical feminists heading. She could just as easily be placed under the Second wave heading, but it seems to me that radical feminism deserves its own heading. Any thoughts? func(talk) 19:41, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Simone de Beauvoir
Now, I'm not the brightest person in the world, nor do I know much about feminism (despite having written the Ti-Grace Atkinson article), but why is Simone de Beauvoir a first-wave and a second-wave feminist? -- The Great Gavini supporting the feminist cause since...
[edit] Asian feminists?
I was wondering whether there were Chinese, Japanese and Korean feminists. Could they be on this list? Where can I look for examples of their life and work? --Bronwyn Gannan 10:31, 7 May 2006 (UTC).
[edit] Organization
The organization of this list is far too complex and difficult to understand for the non-scholar, and categorization being as such seems to be original research. I suggest something more concrete or chronological. AdamBiswanger1 15:18, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Original research
this list appears prone to original research. there are limited sources or citations to backup the inclusion of the people on the list.
[edit] Religious Feminists
Should there be a section of religious feminists? There is an article on Religious feminism. --Nathan Holland 06:04, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
