Here it is, here. I’d like to note that the rest of the paragraph that ends with “shaving your legs” went like this, before it was cut AGAINST MY WISHES:
To Walker, “third wave” meant a feminism linked to her mother’s, but different. It meant continuing and improving upon the best that second-wave feminism had to offer – grassroots activism and critique of the media, for instance – but still shaving your legs. It meant embracing multiculturalism, contradiction, and, if that’s what grooved you, proudly sporting a thong. Soon after Walker’s rallying cry, author/activists Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards published their book, ManifestA, which provided analysis and strategy for the young women now poised to carry the torch. This was a propitious moment.
Just sayin. I did not want them to end with “shaving your legs” when there was so much more substance to the graf.
