The Hackenblog has moved to http://hackenblog.hackenbush.org/ or www.hackenblog.com.Please update your links, thank you.[Previous entry: "Super Columbine Massacre RPG"] [Main Index] [Next entry: "Google's idiot founders"] 01/25/2007 Entry: "Twisty on Feminism" I love Twisty. One sentence says it all: Femininity is a set of practices and behaviors (boob jobs, FGM, ‘beauty’, the ‘veil’, the flirty head-tilt, pornaliciousness, BDSM, fashion, compulsory pregnancy, marriage, et al) that are dangerous, painful, pink, or otherwise destructive; that compel female subordination; that exist only to benefit Dude Nation; that are overwhelmingly represented by ‘girly’ feminists as a ‘choice’; and that are overwhelmingly represented by godbags and other irritating conservatives as ‘natural instincts’. In fact these practices and behaviors are nothing but inviolable cultural traditions in abject compliance with which comfort, contentment, and personal fulfillment are inextricably intertwined, and from which deviation is discouraged by the threat of ingenious punishments ranging from diminished social influence, to unemployability, to ridicule, to imprisonment, to rape, to murder, to the policing of feminist blogs. If you're not reading her blog, you should be. Posted by Laurel Sutton Replies: 1 Comment Long time, L, welcome back. Twisty does indeed rock. I just got my copy of "The Dialectic of Sex" for the upcoming Twisty Book Club or whatever it's called. Commenting on this book begins March 1 on her blog. It's not a wrist-breaker so I should be able to finish it by then. And hopefully I will be able to understand everything. Posted by Ginger Mayerson @ 01/25/2007 03:43 PM PST
