>From Ellen Goodman's Friday workingforchange column:
>
>Does life imitate art? Or movie stars? The current Miss America, Erika 
>Harold, starts Harvard Law School in the fall. Two Harvard graduates, 
>Laurie Gray and Nancy Redd, will be vying for Miss America this September 
>as Miss Rhode Island and Miss Virginia. "This is what third-wave feminism 
>is all about," says Redd. "Be a career woman, be a stay-at-home mom, be 
>Miss America."
>
>Pretty soon we'll need a labeling law. It's harder to tell the difference 
>between third-wave feminism, lipstick feminist, post-feminism and 
>pre-feminism. Or retro-female-ism.
>
>Is someone who remembers when the Miss America pageant was picketed 
>supposed to applaud Miss Harvard America? Is someone with mixed feelings 
>about Anatomically Incorrect Barbie supposed to applaud Legally Blonde 2 
>Barbie -- yes, there is one -- as a training toy of empowerment?
>
>Even the folks marketing itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny Speedo bikinis to teens now 
>declare that "wearing bikinis is an issue of empowerment." And if that 
>weren't enough, there's a television ad for underwear with a (role) model 
>who calls herself Susan B. Anthony.
>
>You can sell anything with a progressive hue -- which is both the success 
>and failure of feminism.
