1. Phil Donohue was always good on women's issues

The talk show format really took a nosedive after he left.

4. How could I forget...

thanks for Phil.

He wouldn't have become,"Mr. Marlo Thomas" otherwise. ;)
I still recall watching them meet on his show.

2. Eddie Vedder

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Vedder

"Vedder began incorporating political statements into his performances early in his career with Pearl Jam. At concerts he often pauses between songs to engage in brief political commentary. During Pearl Jam's 1992 appearance on MTV Unplugged, Vedder stood atop his stool, took out a marker pen, and wrote PRO-CHOICE down his arm in large letters. Pearl Jam performed a Rock for Choice benefit concert in Pensacola, Florida in March of 1994, commemorating the one-year anniversary of the assassination of local abortion provider Dr. David Gunn. Pearl Jam were one of the headliners of the 2004 Vote for Change Tour."

3. John Lennon.

In "The People vs. John Lennon," they speak at length on his support for the feminist movement and how lyrics in his music reflected those feelings.

6. (sigh)

I can barely think of him, without remembering how that pos took him out, in the prime of his life.
But thank you for bringing him to the list, KT!

7. The Beastie Boys....

despite their frat boy beginnings, they are quite outspoken about women's rights today. They were one of the only male groups that made statements about women's safety issues at concerts after the incidents of Woodstock '99.

8. Jack White of the White Stripes....

...took his wife's name when they married. Huge feminist act in my eyes, men are weird about "their name." Not sure how far his feminism extends, but I like this. :thumbsup:

9. He was the person who popped into my head also. n/t

10. Joss Whedon

(creator/director/producer/writer of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly/Serenity). He writes some of the strongest female characters around, and is an outspoken supporter of Equality Now, which works to stop FGM.
