Why bother?

Thank you to Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett and Holly Baxter for this info.

This is all about the UK, which is fair enough I think, as that's where I'm from. So, on with the fun facts:

o Around 58 per cent of carers are female, with women in full-time work still more likely to be carers than men in full-time work.
o Transgendered women remain extremely likely to be prejudiced against.
o Lesbian women tend to experience higher levels of discrimination in the UK than gay men.

So the progress we as feminists have made so far reforming society would appear to be recognising transgendered women and lesbians as existing. Well whoopee.
And which isn't, in fact, properly a feminist goal.
