Caitlin Moran at the Edinburgh International Book Festival

What should you call your vagina? And why does everyone ask you when you're going to have a baby? Caitlin Moran is on a mission to reclaim feminism and make it relevant to women today. Always refreshingly straightforward, frank and funny, the award-winning journalist and Times columnist describes her new book, How to be a Woman, as 'The Female Eunuch, but with knob gags'. She joined us in Edinburgh to share some punch lines with the deputy editor of the Guardian, Katharine Viner.

I love this woman

[shibzy0tennant]

In less than a month she has become one of my favourite people ever and definitely one of my ultimate role models - love her :)

Love Caitlin loved the book, she is our new leader. The Role Models chapter of HtbaW was excellent, don't be sorry you wrote about Katie Price - Caitlin, we are force fed her as a feminist icon by the media which she isn't. As women this is an an important subject we should discuss, as you say most teenage school girls want to be KP! This worry's me a lot see my full rant on the subject on my blog; carrieblant(dot)blogspot(dot)c­om

What would make this video great would be if the Yorkshire Ripper burst out of the back, with hammer, and repeatedly hit the gormless Moran about the head with it.

I used to play leap frog with Kathrine back in the late 70`s. There was a meeting of minds there for sure. Walking back to our respective council homes we agreed on many things except the timing of morality periods and taking up women as a hobby. She was slimmer in those days, sometimes she`d jump out of her bedroom window, nobody was there so there was no sound or fuss. Slightly over the moon for her really seeing her on youtube.
