“Feminist” Is Not a Dirty Word

March 23, 2015 by Adebanke Buki Alabi

On Mondays we’re sharing personal stories of Christian women who identify as feminists. We hope that hearing these stories will broaden our understanding of this important social movement and give us a fuller context for our conversations about equality in the Church.

I was having a casual night in with some friends when one of my male friends said something (I can’t remember what), and I responded, “Sexist!”

He responded, “Feminist!” to which I said, “Proudly.”

That was the end of that but our short exchange was oddly similar to two small children hurling insults at each other on the playground.
