Secular Women Form New Organization

June 30, 2012 by Ed Brayton

Secular Woman is a new organization formed to “amplify the voice, presence, and influence of non-religious women.” Sounds like a great idea to me. They’re just getting off the ground, but I an optimistic that they will be a powerful voice in the secular movement very quickly. Here’s an introductory video:

Secular women form new org called Secular *Woman*.

It’d be interesting to understand any dialogue they had in regards to limiting their group to non-religious women, rather than also recruiting religious women who support a secular government.

@1 – Ohhhh boy. I’ve been reading that as “women” for the past two days now. Embarrassing. :$

I’m one of the founders of Secular Woman. I just wanted to say thanks for blogging about us!

(And thanks to Ibis3 for catching the spelling error.)

Are they forming in to one giant woman, or is it a regular sized position and they each take turns?

One giant woman, kinda Voltron-ish.

Go ahead, MRAs. Cat-call her. Patronise her. Grab her ass (if you can reach that high.) I dare ya!

Excellent news, and I hope this is part of a trend to encourage more participation from all underrepresented groups, not only within the secular community, but also in the sciences, etc. Much better than that patronizing video from a week or two ago (I can’t remember if it was Dutch or what have you); I wish you all the best in support. The more representative this community can become compared to society at large, the more authentically society-wide the community can speak and act.
