my opinions on things, ask for more if you want:

- porn is exploitation of women

- misogyny is real,misandry is not

- agp/aap is real and exists

- transition should not be taken lightly

- gender is real but not in the gender identity blah blah way, but in the way that it is a hierarchy

- castrate men (joke? But the more I read about them the more I detest them)

I would call myself rad-leaning or materialist+socialist-leaning but I am always learning and open for suggestions

Currently there are two ideological poles, representing the prevailing tendencies within the movement. One is the direction toward new lifestyles within a women's culture, emphasizing personal liberation and growth, and the relationship of women to women. Given our real need to break loose from the old patterns — socially, psychologically, and economically — and given the necessity for new patterns in the post-revolutionary society, we understand, support and enjoy this tendency. However, when it is the sole emphasis, we see it leading more toward a kind of formless insolation rather than to a condition in which we can fight for and win power over our own lives.

The other direction is one which emphasizes a structural analysis of our society and its economic base. It focuses on the ways in which productive relations oppress us. This analysis is also correct, but its strategy, taken alone, can easily become, or appear to be, insensitive to the total lives of women.

As socialist feminists, we share both the personal and the structural analysis. We see a combination of the two as essential if we are to become a lasting mass movement. We think that it is important to define ourselves as socialist feminists, and to start conscious organizing around this strategy. This must be done now because of the current state of our movement. We have reached a crucial point in our history.

With the realization that what we saw as personal problems were in fact social ones, we have come to understand that the solutions must also be social ones. With the realization that all women lack control over their lives, we have come to understand that that control can only be gained if we act together. We have come to understand the specific needs of various groups of women and that different groups of women have different ways in which they will fight for control over their own lives.

Podcast "Il femminicidio e i media" con l'intervento della giornalista del Post e femminista, Giulia Siviero.

In occasione del 25 Novembre, farebbe bene riconoscere e denunciare la narrazione tossica che, sopratutto in Italia, si fa dei femminicidi tramite i media. Il carnefice diventa vittima e la vittima colei che ha scatenato la violenza. Orribile. Terrificante.

Bisogna capire che la violenza sulle donne é l'espressione del potere che gli uomini pensano di avere sulle donne. Gli stupri, la violenza fisica, le minacce non accadono per desiderio né gelosia. Non esiste attenuante. Tutto ciò deriva da una potere che si tramanda dall'inizio del mondo.

Che si riparta dalla cultura e dal l'educazione dei nostri figli.
