Apparently, Washington D.C. joins Oakland, Bridgeport and Portland as one of the best American cities for feminists. At least part of that is based on NerdWallet's assessment that D.C. is the top place in the country for female entrepreneurs. If that sounds surprising in a city known for being a boy's club, remember that the Riot Grrrl movement had a huge stronghold in D.C. twenty years earlier. Also, being the epicenter of government makes the District a hotbed for all kinds of protests, feminist and otherwise. [Estately; Friends for Peace Project]
