agree totally! it's interesting i read this right after reading this post: http://community.livejournal.com/debunkingwhite/593730.html?style=mine (the gist of it is: white people, don't expect people of colour to educate you about race)

i'm obviously not against talking to people/educating people about feminism. but when people who say they are pro-feminist but can't be bothered to read up a bit about what that entails instead wants you to spoonfeed it to them & give them a gold star, thats insulting and also diverts your energies from more pressing matters.

also the way he approached you like your his anthropology project would make me suspicious!
