For the record, my colleague Lew Gibbons (one of the self-identified feminists on the sidebar of said blog) is not a she. Therefore, while it may be an "all-feminist" blog, I don't believe it's an all-female one.

My goof. I've edited to reflect new information! (Also, the sidebar has changed throughout the day, so (like a stopped clock), I may have been correct at some point.)

Yeah, I just signed up to be on their list too; I very gingerly asked Ann Bartow if she envisioned an all-female lineup (which I would've thought was fine), and she said no, so I should be on the list soon.

Any feminist law prof is welcome to join! I'm a veteran of several very awesome feminist collectives, and I'm hoping this feminist law prof blog project will succeed.

E-mail: feministlawprof@yahoo.com with questions, advice, support, funny jokes, and anything you'd like to see posted!

Ann, I notice that none of the posts credit the author. Why?

Assuming that is intentional, aren't you worried that your open door policy may result in some embarrassing or wacky anonymous posts?

Gordon,

At the moment, a South Carolina techie and I are the only ones with keys to the blog. Folks on the blogroll can and have made suggestions about things that should be posted, but for now, I will handle the mechanics of posting. So if anything embarassing or wacky happens, credit me.

The point of the blog is not to draw a huge external audience, it is to help build and bond a specific community, feminist law profs. So, it will look and function somewhat differently from blogs like yours.

As I become more comfortable and expert with Word Press, the design of the blog will hopefully evolve to better facilitate communication between feminist law profs.

Certainly any "commentary" posts will credit the author(s).

best,
Ann

Ann, that resolves the concern about wacky posts, but the blog design is misleading. Listing people in the sidebar like you do implies that they are contributors to the blog.
