Round-Up: July 22, 2014

• Miranda Nelson at the Georgia Straight has a fabulously sarcastic response to the #WomenAgainstFeminism hashtag.
• For Indigenous women and two-spirit people, simply resisting erasure is part of their work, says Chelsea Vowel at GUTS Magazine.
• Why do U.S. colleges even handle reports of sexual assaults, instead of just leaving it to police? Feministing gives some context.
• Raquel Reichard says feminists need to know about and mobilize against continuing forced sterilization of women inmates in the U.S., and lack of justice for past victims (Trigger Warning).
• At The F Word, D.H. Kelly argues that men criticizing their women sexual partners’ appearance are more interested in power and control than working on a functional sexual relationship.
• Roz Kaveny has a great article at The Advocate about how trans-exclusionary radical feminism has never been about the actual actions of trans people: “Part of the paradox of trans-exclusionary radical feminism has always been that it is based so totally on applying a theoretical framework to lived experience; it is based on an idea, and yet manifests as extremely personal vindictiveness and vendettas.”
• At xojane, Lesley talks about what it was like to, for once, not be fat-shamed by her doctor.
• Looking for some summer reads? Kait Pinder and Ania Wroblewski have a Canadian feminist summer reading list up at Elle Beaver.
