As I know, radical feminism is about dismantling patriarchy. Liberal feminism states that laws can change the situation of women. I am wondering if a book which tries to understand the origin of patriarchy (historical conditions, what reinforces it etc.), male dominance in animal species and humans, which tries to find solutions to solve the problem […]

Radical feminism
What is radical feminism? It is a feminist current which states that dismantling patriarchy is the only solution for women liberation. Not specific laws, they are not enough. In order to dismantle patriarchy, we have to know what it is. When did it appear? Why? If we know the conditions which led to its creation, we […]
Question
One question: do you consider a book which tries to warn girls and young women about the danger of het relationships (at least in patriarchy), a radical feminist one? We have to take into account that at least in some cares, sexual orientation, especially in women, may be a choice. Do you consider that saving […]
The legend of the “white savior”
Do you believe that there is such a thing as ”a white savior”? This weird notion was used for people, especially ingenious young women, who wanted to save people from other populations (and cultures?). Because there is no biological “race” in humans. “Race” is a political and social notion, with historical implications. But I repeat: […]
A little thought about the reactions to “7000 years”
I never thought of what happened to me: a person from a former communist country, where there was no freedom of expression, only censorships and taboos, explains that she is not a racist or classist, just because some way of expression touched some unknown mysterious taboos. I don’t want to return to that world! People […]
Discovery when trying to promote “7000 years”. “Feminist” prejudices
People don’t want to find out the truth, as I discovered. What is patriarchy? Why is it possible? What does it support it? Which are the mechanisms which lead to its sustainability? How can we destroy it?No, this doesn’t matter if these analyses imply some nasty ideas about women cooperation, hierarchy in men and women […]
Virtual lovers in China – just extending reality
There is a new trend in China regarding relationships. Young people, especially women, pay for a virtual romance, with messages and others. Some young and educated men make some extra money as virtual lovers. Is it weird? No, such an old and sophisticated culture, like the Chinese one, can produce genial business. This is an […]
Scientific ideas in 7000 years
“7000 years” is written by an academic who wants to counteract the patriarchal “science” which in already in the mainstream culture. In fact, bio-sociology, a new patriarchal religion written on “scientific” keys, like eugenics or racist science, but also the Freudian mythology, a while ago, was intensely criticised in the ’70s. But now, although some […]
