SLUT WORLD IS UNDER ATTACK

ISMENE: Kreon says unlawful to do so.

ANTIGONE: Antigone says unholy not to.

- Antigonick, Anne Carson

whomst else loves antigone on this fine evening

[sggk]

“CREON. Listen to me. ANTIGONE. If I want to. I don’t have to listen to you if I don’t want to. There is nothing more you can tell me that I don’t know. Whereas there are a thousand things I can tell you that you don’t know. You stand there, drinking in my words. Why is it that you don’t call your guards? I’ll tell you why. You want to hear me out to the end; that’s why. CREON. You amuse me. ANTIGONE. Oh, no, I don’t. I frighten you. That is why you talk about saving me. Everything would be so much easier if you had a docile, tongue-tied little Antigone living in the palace. But you are going to have to put me to death today, and you know it. And that’s what frightens you. GOD! IS THERE ANYTHING UGLIER THAN A FRIGHTENED MAN!”

— Antigone, Jean Anouilh

Me: why didn't i get credit for my annotations?

AP English lit teacher: you literally just wrote "savage" every time Antigone spoke

Just remember. There is no such thing as a fake geek girl. There are only fake geek boys. Science fiction was invented by a woman.

[shuttersmiley]

Specifically a teenage girl. You know, someone who would be a part of the demographic that some of these boys are violently rejecting.

Isaac Asimov.

[sim0nbaz-deactivated20170205]

yo mary shelley wrote frankenstein in 1818 and isaac asimov was born in 1920 so you kinda get my point

[fancyeliza-deactivated20200804]

If you want to push it back even further Margaret Cavendish, the duchess of Newcastle (1623-1673) wrote The Blazing World in 1666, about a young woman who discovers a Utopian world that can only be accessed via the North Pole - oft credited as one of the first scifi novels

Women have always been at the forefront of literature, the first novel (what we would consider a novel in modern terms) was written by a woman (Lady Muraskai’s the Tale of Genji in the early 1000s) take your snide “Isaac Asimov” reblogs and stick it

even in terms of male scifi authors, asimov was predated by Jules Verne, HG Wells, George Orwell, you could have even cited Poe or Jonathan Swift has a case but Asimov?

PbbBFFTTBBBTBTTBBTBTTT so desperate to discredit the idea of Mary Shelly as the mother of modern science fiction you didn’t even do a frickin google search For Shame

[cryptovalid]

And if you want to go back even further, the first named, identified author in history was Enheduanna of Akkad, a Sumerian high priestess.

[gunthatshootsennui]

Kinda funny, considering this Isaac Asimov quote on the subject:

Mary Shelley was the first to make use of a new finding of science which she advanced further to a logical extreme, and it is that which makes Frankenstein the first true science fiction story.

[deathcomes4u]

Even Isaac Asimov ain’t having none of your shit, not even posthumously.

[velocigrey-deactivated20160825]

You know what else was invented by women? Masked vigilantes, the precursor to the modern superhero. Baroness Emma Orczy wrote The Scarlet Pimpernel in 1905. The character would later inspire better known masked vigilantes such as Zorro and Batman.

Got that?

Stick that in your international pipe and smoke it

I have literally been telling people this for over a year.

[athenadark]

the first extended prose piece - ie a novel, was not, as many male scholars will shout, Don Quixote (1605) but The Tale of Genji (1008) written by a woman

[thepsychicclam]

The first autobiography ever written in English is also attributed to a woman, The Book of Margery Kempe (1430s).

The day may come when I find this post and do not reblog it, but it is not this day.

[fragments-of-sappho]

Women invented language while men were hunting. I mean…

[relentlesserudition]

For reference and further fact-checking.

[balkanradfem]

I feel that wars are extremely disrespectful to women.. women make literally all those people and then men just destroy them, disregarding insane amount of pain, work, sacrifice, love, energy, time it took women to make just one person, and then they go and demand “you have to make more!!!” and we’re like “uh we literally saw what you did to last bunch no thanks” and then they’re offended and call us murderers?? like excuse me I would like to not contribute a human resource for your killing game? And I think you all owe women about thousand apologies? Stop unmaking everything we make and breaking our hearts in the process, and this is even without addressing the rampant violence and sexual aggression towards women in wars, every single war is a crime against women more than anyone else and nothing will change my mind.

[whatthefuuuuuuccckkkk]

This take is absolutely scorching.

You can live without men

[spockgirl]

I’m sure some sex workers do enjoy their jobs but I care more about being able to raise girls in a society where they don’t have to see themselves as commodities and preventing the mass exploitation of vulnerable women, sorry! I thought we had agreed as anti-capitalists that personal freedom sometimes has to take a backseat so we can create a society that works toward collective good but I guess you guys just really love porn
