In fact, she’s one of a whole generation.‘Accidental feminists’ is the name Caro has coined to describe women, now aged over 55, who lived vastly different lives from any generation before them. The accidental feminists didn’t grow up expecting to break new ground and only a few wore the feminist label with pride until quite recently. Nonetheless, Caro argues that these women, who once assumed they’d live lives comparable to their own mothers, have fundamentally changed our society, our economy and indeed, the world. culturefeminismmakingbooksgreatagain Best Of Future Women Culture “We can’t change this on our own” By Melanie Dimmitt Culture “Marching forward means ensuring all our voices are heard” By Melanie Dimmitt Culture The reason Demi Moore’s speech struck a chord with women By Sally Spicer Culture When parenting meets policing By FW Culture What do lifesavers and ladybugs have in common?
