Description
Summary:According to Carol Christ, the "voices of women are a lifeline,"1 a sentiment that has been loudly echoed by women in blogging communities. Blogs have offered a voice to all who wish to be heard—and women have consistently created and participated in blogging communities at a higher rate than men in search of the opportunity to share their thoughts and experiences in a public forum. Within blogging communities, women have been empowered to engage in embodied thinking and bring together their personal experiences with philosophical and theological reflection. Thus, blogs have become a tool for women's experiences, ideas, and questions to be further shaped and modulated through those of other women.
