What Is The Purpose Of Radical Feminist Reading, Writing, And Thought? (Part 4 of 4) by Jocelyn Crawley
Unlike much of the discourse that transpires in the living world, radical feminist reading, writing, and thought is not about shallow engagements, conversational pastimes, aligning with power structures, reactionary politics, and/or the development of superficial relationships. Rather, radical feminism is purposeful; the purpose of radical feminism is to end the violent tyranny (which is exacted through both physical …

What Is The Purpose Of Radical Feminist Reading, Writing, And Thought? (Part 3 of 4) by Jocelyn Crawley
Once one becomes a radical feminist or even a feminist, one often recognizes the danger of continually immersing oneself in systems, structures, and societal groups that are predicated on the intentional or unwitting collusion with the patriarchy. Yet the problem is that because the world is organized around patriarchy as the foundational, primary, and only acceptable culture, …

What Is The Purpose Of Radical Feminist Reading, Writing, And Thought? (Part 2 of 4) by Jocelyn Crawley
Once you realize that patriarchy is effective in part because it is built on lies, or false narratives regarding what reality is and how it should be, it is important to develop a counternarrative.

Roar and Dickinson (both on AppleTV)
Roar is a disappointment–to see what passes for feminism these days, you’d think it was the 1950s (a feminist moment is realizing that being an object of beauty on a pedestal is not a fulfilling life? seriously?).
But Dickinson is a hoot and I’m loving it–it might not be historically accurate, but I think Dickinson …

What Is The Purpose Of Radical Feminist Reading, Writing, And Thought? (Part 1 of 4) by Jocelyn Crawley
It’s safe to say that at some point, everyone—all men and women—are exposed to the reality that patriarchy exists. Although some do not understand the depth and scope of the dark heart of the patriarchy, they have a general understanding that this world operates under the control of men. If, unlike most men and women, …

A couple nice bits from Rokeya Hossain
“And [do you think it wise] to keep sane people inside an asylum and let loose the insane?” from “Sultana’s Dream”, a short story by Islamic Indian writer Rokeya Hossain (published in 1905), referring to the practice of keeping the women inside while the men roam free
“Is there any crime that gentlemen don’t commit? …

The Straight Mind by Monique Wittig: A Book Review by Jocelyn Crawley
It’s safe to suggest that most radical feminists agree that there is not one single economic factor, aspect of material reality, cognitive process, or bodily reality that makes male domination of women a present and prevalent component of our lives. Rather, there are a plethora of intersecting factors which, in working together, ensure that men consistently have the cultural and …

Sex-Based Vs. Gender-Based Oppression: Understanding How The Use And/Or Disuse Of Language Can Impact The Way We Conceptualize Male Supremacy – guest post by Jocelyn Crawley
Part of the reason that patriarchy remains the ruling religion of the planet such that men can exact a plethora of pernicious harms on and against women and girls is because of the way people, both male and female, think about the reality of sex and gender. The normative cognitive pattern is oftentimes convoluted and, as many …
