grrrls vs wimyn!

SO, what do you think? Is there a generational difference between grrrls (3rd wave feminists) and wimyn (2nd wave feminists)? I have certainly noticed a reluctance of many younger women in my university classes to call themselves feminists. Yet they stand by some of the most basic feminist principles of equality and fairness. What is your experience of this? Any younger feminists out there willing to share their perspective?
