Also, if you go to Google's Homepage, you can click on today's fancy banner and it will bring you to a list of places to which you can donate (I mean, if you're into that. I am when I have money). If you're looking for reading material to get you into the feminist mood, Autostraddle turned me onto this article by Eileen Myles: Being Female. It's good. Trust. And with that, I bid you a Happy International Women's Month! Today, may you feel loved.
