The article discusses about the issue of feminism in media. It focuses on the article "Feminism: It's All About Me," by Ginia Bellafante. According to the author, Bellafante was right in criticizing contemporary feminism. The author suggests that according to media feminism is mostly sex chats and book promotions by writers. Basic issues related to feminism are always ignored. Although females from other streams have been given place on the magazine. It is suspected that feminism is in dire straits. The truth is, there's lots of feminism out there, and millions of self-identified feminists.
