In some part, I find myself shocked. Another part counsels calm. Since the Sixties, large parts of society gave themselves over to the notion that if we ounly shouted loud enough and proved sincere enough the edifice of privileged of and the rest of those endless list of evils would crumble as Marx, Leniin, and Mao promised.
Alas dear friends none of those guys knew shit. Their main suppositiions have proven wrong. Society does not function like a mon olith. It only appears to.
So, in the realm of Feminist theory and practice and Male sexist backlash we struggle to find authenticity. We search for a teory and practice that will work.
We ain't there yet boobie. And, no matter how hard you huff and puff and try to make yourself believe we are! No. We ain't.
We have a few tools from ages past: Ten of them in one set or Tweleve of them in another, if you like. Takes lots of individual work.
Keep on trucking.
