Feminism is a big tent, but most (maybe all?) feminists would agree that "it is the radical notion that women are people".
For this site, let's start with anything relating to
- gender relations
- sex roles
- sexual & reproductive biology
- women's history
- feminist perspectives & analyses
"Feminism" might better be described as "feminisms", and it would include a number of different trends, identities, politics, and historical tendencies:
- First Wave Feminism
- Second Wave Feminism
- Third Wave Feminism
- Difference Feminism
- Radical Feminism
The WisCon version (at http://www.wiscon.info/faq.php) is also applicable:
We define "feminist" broadly to include race and class issues, gay/bisexual/lesbian/transgender issues, and anything else that touches on strong women (authors, artists, readers, characters) in science fiction, fantasy, and horror.
