Get Involved
Were you with us a few years back for the Fem2.0 conference? What about our 2010 Wake Up! Campaign? Well if you missed out, don’t fret! Fem2.0 has plenty of events for you to get involved with now, and in the future. We are launching new online and offline opportunities and in the coming months those will include campaigns, volunteer opportunities, internship positions, and of course, more Tweet Chats! Keep an eye for all the ways to get involved with Fem2.0 and become a part of our community.
- TweetChats: Twice a month, Fem2 brings you the opportunity to tweet with authors, renowned women activists and politicians about every hot commodity subject Fem2 likes to talk about. Our past Tweetchats have included:
- #Shamefreesex with Jaclyn Friedman was a bare-all Tweetchat that uncovered the taboos and shame women experience with sex. She spoke about her new book, which will “change your sex life forever.”
- #nxtgenfem Tweetchat with Stephenie Foster about our responsibility to pass the women’s torch onto future generations
- Domestic Violence Awareness Month, dedicated to recognizing the signs of domestic violence and how to offer help and support to friends, family, or other loved ones who may need it.

Guest Blogging with Fem2pt0
How long should the piece be?
We generally post pieces that are between 500 and 800 words, rarely more than 1000.
How do you categorize posts?
Fem2pt0 divides our posts up into several categories: Advertising, Arts and Entertainment, Economics & Finance, Families and Caregiving, Fem2 Events, Global Issues, Health, Lifestyle and Relationships, Politics and Public Policy, Pop Culture, Reproductive Rights and Abortion, Security and Defense, Sports, Violence Against Women, & Work and Careers.
What are Professional Fridays?
Every Friday, Fem2pt0 hosts a column dedicated solely to women’s professional development. During the week, our community poses questions using the hashtag #Fem2JobQ, and we post responses from experts across the country. We also post personal stories about professional development, so if you think our community can learn something about an experience of yours, send us your story!
What do you write about?
Our bloggers write about everything! Given the active and engaged nature of our community, we tend to post articles that fall under 3 “types”
- News and current events
- Analysis of trends or public perception
- Personal anecdotes or experiences
Check out these sample posts:
- The Whistle Blower (Movie Review)
- 140 Reasons Domestic Violence is Not A Joke Battles Reasons to Beat Your Girlfriend
- The Marriage Vow Point By Point – Almost
- Would You Recognize the Devil If He Came to Your Door?
Do you provide compensation for blog posts?
We hate to be part of the establishment that doesn’t pay writers – particularly female writers – what they’re worth, but sadly Fem2.0 is not in a position to pay for blog posts.
