Definitions

I am currently enrolled in online Human Geography course. I was surprised when I realized all homework will consist of definitions. However, after looking things up in the handy-dandy glossary, I suppose it makes me concentrate on the key terms. Here is a new one that I thought some people may enjoy. It makes sense to me.

Ecofeminism: A new doctrine proposing that women are inherently better environmental preservationists than men because the traditional roles of women involved creating and nurturing life, whereas the traditional roles of men too often necessitated death and destruction.

2 blog entries, I'm on a roll...I think this is more than I typed all last quarter.
