I appreciate the end of this post in particular. "There's more than one path to green" especially makes me feel less judged, not that you are the judging type, Erin. Still I am awed at the energy you have to put into your environmentalism. Thanks for your educational blog; it keeps me thinking.

Great post. I have friends that think I'm some sort of radical for buying organic or going to the market. Huh? I like cooking from scratch and do want some chickens, but agree to each his own!

Yuck - I hate the name femivore as well. Why do we have to be given a label anyway? That said, I agree with your point about doing what we can with what we can. Following our passions will make a better world.

@Robbie - Totally agree. I kept thinking as I was writing this that I should apologize to our male readers for excluding them from this post, and then I was like - wait, nothing I'm saying here applies only to women. You're exactly right that caring for family, health, and the environment has nothing to do with gender.

Who came up with that term? About as bad as the ones I read about last week. ;)

I guess I'm not seeing how caring for your family, health and the environment is a strictly feminist issue?

Yes Its a silly name with the wrong meaning. I thought it said F E R N ivore! I was confused by that too. after all what does eating ferns have to do with it. (I need new glasses desparatly).

Annelise and Daisy - That's exactly what I thought. Herbivore, carnivore, femivore...:)

Never let what you cannot do interfere with what you can.

Femivore sounds like something vaguely cannibalistic. I hope it doesn't stick.

That term is awful. It makes it sound like you're going around eating women.

Glad people are talking about it though.

i totally thought of the green phone booth eco-moms when i read this article. i kind of wish i could be a femivore except i don't have kids and i don't have land to live off, so my desire to stay home and live traditionally doesn't seem to have as much clout.

Loved the article, but I agree: "Femivore&quo...

Loved the article, but I agree: "Femivore" sounds like a women's personal care product.

Had a random thought though. Are labels compostable?

The femivore name is awful and I really hope it doesn't stick. The description is certainly me. I can't imagine going back to work now, I don't have the time. Too much to do taking care of my family.
