Yeah.  We'll never be done with this debate, will we?  Chatelaine is a middle-of-the-road women's magazine, no real feminist leaning beyond their more recent attempt to get away from endless dieting articles, so it's not surprising to see this.

Speaking of that article, a bunch of us friends of Jessica Yee were thrilled to see her featured in that article as one of the new faces of feminist activism around reproductive choice.  She writes for rabble, too!

It's good for feminists like Jessica to get into the mainstream and show people that this is what a pro-choice feminist looks like.  I also like that they showed another pro-choice feminist holding a baby and being maternal, which busts the stereotype of us being nasty women who hate kids.
