In this column, a recent college grad getting her footing in the world gives advice to her teenage self.
Dear JJ:
Today I want to talk about the “F word”. No, not that one. That one. Yes, THAT one. You know what the word is. Oh yes. No, not feminist. Feminist is not a dirty word, you know that. But you know what’s also not a dirty word? Feminine. More

It’s partially because you disdain the advice of “wiser heads”, but also because I’m reluctant to affect you coming to conclusions about life on your own. People will comment on what they perceive as your well-adjustedness, but I maintain our well-adjustedness is simply a product of perspective. Ours. More
