Note that in modern feminist theory (actually, it is probably more accurate
to think of feminisms rather than a single feminism)  there is a place for
embracing difference - we can reject the notion that one must either be male
or 'not-male' (female; other).  Fiona Giles' video 'milk men' can be read as
an attempt at subverting this male/female opposition.
 A good spot to brush up on fem theor(ies) is

There's also some fabulous feminist lactivist blogging to be found at Hoyden
about town <http://viv.id.au/blog/> 
Check it out when you have a moment for some really fun stuff.
