Journalism for women, by women, without apology
The Section

Opinion

Argued. Researched. On the record. The pieces that say the thing nobody else will, with the receipts to back it up. Strong views from women who have done the reading.

A note on this section

This section is being built. Properly.

WO/ is a new independent publication, and we are publishing one section at a time, carefully sourced and properly checked. The first piece in our Culture section is already live. The pieces below are commissioned and in progress.

If you want to know the moment a opinion piece goes live, and we will send it directly to you.
