The funny side of feminism

Guardian: Comment is Free |
| Forty years on from The Female Eunuch, the pioneering sisterhood is still witty and wise
In 1975, American journalist Susan Brownmiller published a book about rape called Against Our Will . I have it here beside me now and I'll tell you this for nothing: it's not an easy read. Six pages in and Brownmiller has already made reference to Freud, Jung, Marx and Engels, and also to someone called Krafft-Ebing, whose name is unfamiliar to me, but who, she says, is the author of a famous study called Psychopathia Sexualis . Apparently, Krafft-Ebing is good on frotteurs and fetishists, but terrible on rapists.
She concludes her first chapter by stating that rape is "nothing more or less than a conscious process of intimidation by which all men ... |

Lesbian photos 'immoral', says minister

2.3.2010 |
The Guardian -- World Latest |
| Lulu Xingwana criticised for walking out of an exhibition she had been due to speak at over images of nude lesbian couples
A South African government minister walked out of an exhibition because it featured photographs of nude lesbian couples that she found "immoral" and "against nation-building".
Lulu Xingwana had been due to speak at the opening of a show by young black women artists at Constitution Hill, a heritage site where political prisoners were held during apartheid.
But she left prematurely after viewing pictures of naked women embracing intimately by lesbian artist and activist Zanele Muholi .
Xingwana said: "Our mandate is to promote social cohesion and nation building. I left the exhibition because it expressed the very ... |

Does abstinence-only sex ed work? | Jill Filipovic
|
5.2.2010 |
Guardian: Comment is Free |
| Despite recent claims, abstinence-only sex education is no substitute for medically accurate, shame-free information
If there is one thing that has proven true throughout human history, it's that people like – scratch that, love – to have sex. It's one of the most natural things a person can do, and pretty soon after hitting puberty our bodies start encouraging us to go forth and multiply (or at least have fun trying). Of course, for a lot of us, the "going forth" part is more desirable than the actual multiplying, and so human beings have also spent centuries trying to separate one from the other. The 20th century brought the birth-control pill and increasing freedoms for women – including the social acceptability of sex before marriage and ... |

Julie Bindel's dangerous transphobia
|
1.2.2010 |
Guardian: Comment is Free |
| Beatrix Campbell was wrong – refusing to give Bindel a platform is not censorship. It is the right reaction to her hateful views
I don't much care for Julie Bindel , unlike Beatrix Campbell, who defended her on this site yesterday . That does not mean I don't admire her. As a feminist whose radicalism would probably surprise her, I appreciate Ms Bindel's advocacy and the genuine good that has come for her work against violence directed at women. Yet in her long, lonely crusade against transsexuals she contradicts three of her own three feminist principles:
1) Gender is a social construct and malleable – unless you try to change yours.
2) Biology is not destiny – except men are always men and women are always women.
3) Bodily ... |
