Feministing.com

I believe that the fiministing.com does a great job in showing its point convincing readers. First, the website is concise and precise about the webpage; there is no fancy decoration, no noise background music, or lousy pop up advertisements, which creates a good circumstance that makes the readers focus on the main topic discussed in the website. The website also has lots of discussions of feminist from several directions. Lots of posts on this website share similarities such as criticizing the behavior or events that showed disrespect to female, raising the unnoticed social problems to the readers’ notice, also showing gratitude to the symbols of feminists who stood up and showing people that something needs to be done.

The one post that attracted me is the post “The Feministing Five: Dregs One” (by ANNA, published in March 31, 2012). The post first described about life experiences of the rapper called Dregs One, then talked about the contributions that the rapper has done with his albums, cited some works of Dregs One to store credibility, creating the image of hero of the feminists in reader’s head by the use of words, then show the record of interview with the rapper to make the point clear and even more convincible. By the end, several video footages of the rapper are placed to let reader meet their hero. At this point, the author’s objective is complete.
