I'm reading Right-wing Women by Dworkin and it's hitting hard: "Right-wing women have surveyed the world: they find it a dangerous place. They see that work subjects them to more danger from more men; it increases the risk of sexual exploitation.(1/?)
They see that creativity and originality in their kind are ridiculed; they see women thrown out of the circle of male civilization for having ideas, plans, visions, ambitions. They see that traditional marriage means selling to one man, not hundreds: the better deal. (2/?)
They see that the streets are cold, and that the women on them are tired, sick, and bruised. They see that the money they can earn will not make them independent of men and that they will still have to play the sex games of their kind: at home and at work too. (3/?)
They see no way to make their bodies authentically their own and to survive in the world of men. They know too that the Left has nothing better to offer: leftist men also want wives and whores; leftist men value
whores too much and wives too little. (4/?)
whores too much and wives too little. (4/?)
Right-wing women are not wrong. They fear that the Left, in stressing impersonal sex and promiscuity as values, will make them more vulnerable to male sexual aggression, and that they will be despised for not liking it. They are not wrong." (5/?)
Like damn, women really can't win. Everywhere we go, every choice we make, male violence is waiting for us, each time wearing a different mask but underneath always the same ugly face. (6/6)
