Article here. Excerpt:

'Margot Wallstrom, Sweden’s top diplomat, has sought to advance what she calls a feminist foreign policy. What does that mean?

She says it is a way to use the usual tools of diplomacy to address three questions: Do women have equal rights? Are women at the decision-making table? And, are resources equitably distributed to women?

“A feminist foreign policy,” she said, “is an analysis of the world.”'

... she neglected to mention the lack of rights for both sexes. I think there's nothing wrong with championing women's rights so long as you don't trample men's rights in the process or neglect same. Modern feminists do both.
