At home a woman's place is in the kitchen but in the restaurant industry she is a waitress. That is because in the eyes of man, a woman's place is that of servitude.

they see the healthcare industry as systemic violence against poor people (and they’re right), but they don’t see rape as systemic violence against women bc they either don’t view women as fully human or they see rape as just a normal, inevitable part of life.

Davis is perfectly clear in WRC that while the myth of the "black rapist" was invoked w great success as a general defense of the practice of lynching, the large majority of actual lynchings did not involve accusations of rape.
You are peddling the very myth that she criticizes.
You president is a sexual predator who has filled his cabients and the courts with sexual predators. Othering is predicated on marginalization, and "righteous" violence is rationalized with whatever is most convenient.

Feminists were mocked endlessly in the mid 2010s for talking about rape culture and now it’s just constant news stories about our govt & laws shielding sexual predators. Feminists were right all along

"they're censoring taboo sexuality!!!" and it's rape, the cornerstone upon which the entire regime of cisheteropatriarchy is built

"Taking rape from the realm of 'the sexual,' placing it in the realm of 'the violent,' allows one to be against it without raising any questions about the extent to which the institution of heterosexuality has defined force as a normal part of [sex]."
Please share and donate to help my friend escape her abusive father. She has been unbelievably brave in seeking help up to this point but she can't do it alone.

Endlessly grateful for the space and encouragement Total Woman Victory has given me. A remarkable project made possible thanks to a group of hard-working women.
"Disappeared from the land, barred from the ache of fulfilling labor, stiff work gloves adorn my hands in place of the slick sheen of warm soil; in place of soft yielding ground, I stand for hours on slabs of concrete; the sun, a sky burdened with stars, displaced with the smothering blankness of the city night sky, my sun cold warehouse lights; the hymn of insects in the night replaced by the sound of industry driving, the sound of the world as she dies."

Total Woman Victory Issue 3: Land, Labor, Liberation is OUT NOW! 🔗 below!
Land, Labor, Liberation is a revolutionary feminist theme that grounds Total Woman Victory in the material conditions of proletarian women in global class and national liberation struggles, especially in the Third World. It centers land as the site of conquest and resistance, labor as the terrain of exploitation and survival, and liberation as the political axis of freedom and autonomy. Female liberation is the revolutionary demand for the overturning of feudal and postmodern patriarchal rule, the destruction of female sex-class oppression, and the end of all imperialist domination.
Land, Labor, Liberation calls forth the fighting traditions of women who have risen against the simultaneous forces of imperialist accumulation, caste, colony, and male domination—and insists that freedom must be built from the ground up through collective feminist struggle.

Celebrities like Sabrina can commodify their sexuality on a massive scale while staying relatively insulated from the worst forms of exploitation.That doesn’t mean the system is empowering, it just means they’re at the top of a hierarchy that still exploits most women.
