Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Loving on the Borderline - poems. In that time between the mists and the clearing,. I remember the knowing,. That you were coming to me. In the midst of all the hurt and fearing and wild yearning. And not knowing anymore anything,. I felt something beyond the horizon, gleaming. It was not a dream. From across the earth, you came to me. Your words cut like a scythe,. Slicing right at my heart,. Your aim, as ever, so true,. As if you no longer want me alive. Take a breath,. Will y...

What’s Wrong With The Queer Community? | Lesbian + Women's Liberationist
https://lesbianplusfeminist.wordpress.com/2010/09/24/whats-wrong-with-the-queer-community
Lesbian Women's Liberationist. What’s Wrong With The Queer Community? September 24, 2010 at 12:12 PM ( Uncategorized. I recently had a womyn ask me what I meant when I used the word “queer” because I used it in a negative way, and she thought it simply referred to gay men and lesbians. This is a response to that. If that’s what you want, book a surgeon! Part of the reason for the body-negativity is the heavy focus on androgyny in some queer subcommunities, particular the genderqueer community. The id...

Lesbian Women's Liberationist. DON’T TRUST WHITEY. April 20, 2010 at 10:52 PM ( Uncategorized. If there are any women out there who are still operating under the delusion that feminist spaces or lesbian spaces are safe spaces with regard to race, ethnicity, or nationality, this is your wake up call: DO NOT TRUST WHITEY. I know this stuff has probably been said before, but it needs to keep being said, again and again until everyone has read it 57 times and actually get’s it. If someone tells you that a wh...

https://treesister.wordpress.com/2010/10/11/such-a-telling-tale
Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. Such a Telling Tale. October 11, 2010 in Books. A friend recently loaned me a book, most of which I read into the wee hours today. It was that good. I’ve just finished it; it’s good right up to the end, a really good ending, in fact. Enough twists, enough reality, and enough of a kick to ensure I think of this book for a good long time. The book is called. Such a Pretty Girl. The author is Laura Wiess, and the year of publication 2007. Back to the Basics.

Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. Back to the Basics. October 8, 2010 in Privilege. What is female culture and how does it impact feminism? Is it useful to explain oppression as viewed from this particular framing? If you haven’t read Carol Gilligan’s. In a Different Voice. Male culture tends to coalesce in linear form. Think of mathematics and hierarchies as two ready examples. Female culture tends to flow into circles and non-rigid patterns. Women’s sewing circles and chur...And do th...

Bev Jo: Naturally Lesbian
http://bevjo.blogspot.com/2010/08/naturally-lesbian.html
Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Considering how beautiful Lesbian love is,. Why are so many people so afraid of us? A lie repeated enough begins to be believed. They bully us with their propaganda of. 8220;the birds and the bees,”. As if every creature must be paired male and female,. Making heterosexuality inevitable, inescapable, normal,. While making us freaks. But do they think we don’t know basic biology? Do they think we can’t read? Do they really not know about the birds and the bees. Movies are fantasi...

If I taught feminism 101 …. | Treesister's Blog

Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. If I taught feminism 101 …. October 26, 2010 in Feminism 101. I also am beginning to see some holes in the rest of my theory. One of my new teachers is Margaret Jamison, of AROOO. She is among the most intelligent and insightful writers I have ever come across. Clearly there is a reason why I do not teach feminism 101, in addition to not being clearly competent. Yet. Or so I am hoping. We Won't Submit. Comments feed for this article. 8220;Sad: the relat...

Natural Womanhood, Part One | Treesister's Blog
https://treesister.wordpress.com/2010/11/05/natural-womanhood-part-one
Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. Natural Womanhood, Part One. November 5, 2010 in Books. What would girlhood look like, without the demands of feminization? What would a truly natural woman look like? As much as I love and admire Aretha, I’m not convinced this truly natural woman would be singing to a man, that she would be heterosexual. What would our concept of real womanhood be? How common would heterosexuality be if women truly had the option to evade the feminization process?

Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. The Sexual Politics of Food. October 5, 2010 in Veg*nism. A friend and I were talking about the toll that veg*nism takes on feminists. She said, “We are animals and we need to eat to survive.” This is a view I share with her, deeply. Feminists have taken up the charge. Level propaganda. Instead, this vengeful version of ‘divide and conquer’ seems to have originated from within. In our frenzy to divorce ourselves from all things patriarchal, we f...As fe...

Taking radical feminism to the post-collapse world. Natural Womanhood, Part Two. November 15, 2010 in Books. Much of this post is about trigger warnings. Because of this, there. Be triggers in the text. Please be advised. Do you remember when you capitulated? Succumbed to the cultural demand to be feminine, to accept your socially-given role as a female? To accept the trappings of the Essential She? I’m not supposed to phrase it like that. And what are styles for women except clothing that is handicappin...
