Just a thought as someone fairly new to Mumsnet.... I wondered why certain topics are discussed in the feminism section and not anywhere else (as far as I am aware). This, and other issues such as domestic abuse, can happen to any woman yet, as far as I can see, they tend to be posted in the feminism section - and sadly, many women don't identify themselves as 'feminist'.
As a site aimed at women, it would be useful to be able to post this kind of topic somewhere where more women would see it yet often these topics are confined to this section. I'm just pondering why this might be.
Is this indicative that feminists are nice, sympathetic people who have an understanding of the power dynamic involved in sexual assault/domestic abuse situations?!

Why are certain topics posted here that affect all women, e.g. domestic abuse?
