Kate Harding

Kate Harding has been writing popular feminist rants for Internet audiences since 2007, most notably at Jezebel, at Salon's Broadsheet blog, and at her own body-acceptance blog, Shapely Prose. She's also the coauhor of Lessons from the Fat-o-Sphere, a major contributor to The Book of Jezebel, and an essayist who's been published in several anthologies, including Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World without Rape. Kate recently started a new Tumblr blog, Don't Get Raped (victimblaming.tumblr.com), which uses news items about sexual assault to catalog the many situations women--and men and children--have to avoid to fully protect themselves against the threat of rape. She lives in Minnesota.
