In the UK women are doing feminism in many of the same ways that Americans are, but focusing on their own agendas. The site is a database for articles on topics of interest. Because of my personal love of fashion, that is what I entered into the search box. Looking at parts of the articles I find that there is a strong intersection of oppression happening in the UK as well, even in the realm of fashion.
The Western world is not exclusive with its feminism. Feminists are alive and well in India as well. These women are not addressing the same issues because the culture is rather different. Instead, on the side panel, is a listing of topics arranged by area. One of the issues that is prevalent in India are acid attacks, which do not tend to happen in the US.
As we venture into Latin America we find that they need a more extreme activist approach to their situation and you are greeted by a "we need help" kind of sign. There is also a picture of women with tape over their mouths to insinuate censorship.
