The Women's Freedom Network

Web Page: http://www.womensfreedom.org/
"The Women's Freedom Network was founded in early 1993 by a
group of women who were seeking alternatives to extremist
ideological feminism and the anti-feminist traditionalism. It
believes in the full participation of women in every area of
American life. It celebrates the achievements women have
already made, and it views women's issues in light of a
philosophy that defines women and men as individuals and not in
terms of gender. It does not set different standards of
excellence, morality, or justice for men and women."
