She interrupts herself to ask if I know about the #microfeminism trend, “where you just impose the feminine on everything. It’s anything’s like, ‘Oh, I need to talk to a doctor, because she’ll tell me.’ I do it all the time.
Because, obviously, patriarchy would have it be such that every fucking thing is male, including the creatures. I’m working those micro-#feminisms into every board meeting.”

"Sophie Lewis presented her new book "Enemy Feminisms: TERFs, Policewomen, and Girlbosses Against Liberation" to a packed auditorium. The book discusses the problematic ‘enemy’ feminisms that have emerged throughout history within the feminist movement. The lecture was followed by a discussion led by Denisa Tomková"—Fakulta humanitních studií Univerzity Karlovy

Teilzeithelden: When Women Were Dragons- Unterdrückt. Entfesselt. Wiedergeboren (Kelly Barnhill) – Wenn Frauen sich erheben (Rezension)
In Kelly Barnhills neustem Roman When Women Were Dragons verwandeln sich plötzlich tausende Frauen in Drachinnen und verlassen ihre Freunde und Familien. Doch was wird aus denen, die zurückbleiben? Und wie geht die Welt mit so einem unglaublichen Phänomen um?

"Even as queer and trans Iranian asylum seekers and Afghan refugees who left Iran for Turkey do not fall under the same category according to the UNHCR’s criteria, they have something in common: they are economic refugees. Yet the UNHCR does not recognize economic marginalization as grounds for granting asylum. If it did, a large number of people in the world (including in the United States) who are affected by global capitalism’s economic violence (such as lack of access to universal health care in the United States) would be eligible for asylum."

“When they challenge the innocent morality of the rights regime, anthropologists join a number of political and legal theorists who have asked whether humanitarianism is the new face of colonialism. Some have pointed out the paradoxes of rights-based arguments: that they allow people to make claims, but lock them into fixed identities defined by their injuries rather than freeing them from these identities into a world of equals; or they absolve the perpetrators of past violence by making them the defenders of rights.”

“Politeness blunts the tongue of criticism, ridicule, satire or irony. On the other hand, radical rudeness breaks down the doors to the arsenal of verbal, literary, and linguistic devices available to launch a counterattack against corrupt militant brutes in government who use bullets, prison sentences, and mass graves to silence their opponents.“

Reification and objectification
"The notion of objectification concerns an interpersonal relationship, the individual action targeted by morality and law [...]. The notion of objectification, understood in this way, dispenses with a critical theory of society, which is central to the concept of reification. The emphasis is on individual responsibility, on the condemnation of singular acts, rather than on the social structures that demand, authorise or perpetuate these behaviours."
"In her book Dialectics of the Body, Lisa Yun Lee proposes an understanding of reification in Adorno based on the question of the body: the body forgotten by scientific modernity, the repressed body associated with nature and the feminine, the body mutilated by identity violence, and the commodity and spectacle body, instrumentalised for production (Yun Lee, 2004). "All reification is an oblivion": an oblivion of suffering, a collective anaesthesia to the effects of domination systematically organised and reproduced by reification."

"Introduced in the 1990s in the United States by black women activists, the concept of reproductive justice highlights how access to reproductive rights is impeded by gender, race and class oppressions. The entry presents the origins of the reproductive justice movement in the United States and the circulation of this notion in activist and academic spheres internationally."

In 1910 in Copenhagen, the 2nd International Conference of Socialist Women adopted the idea of an "International Women's Day" from a proposal by Clara Zetkin (German Social Democratic Party), although no date was set.
The "Journal du CNRS" notes that "Women's Day was therefore the initiative of the socialist movement and not of the feminist movement, which was very active at the time". The historian Françoise Picq adds that "it was precisely to counteract the influence of feminist groups on the women of the people that Clara Zetkin proposed this day", rejecting "the alliance with the 'feminists of the bourgeoisie'": https://lejournal.cnrs.fr/articles/journee-des-femmes-la-veritable-histoire-du-8-mars @histodons

Here is a feminist opinion about #safety, #security, #masculinity, #whiteness, #liberals and #progressists.
It notably stated the need for a discourse incorporating sorrow and hope, on 9 November 2023:

"Drag dramatizes and makes explicit mundane, everyday gender rituals and, through this repetition of gendered actions, suggests that essentialist presumptions about correct or authentic genders can be reworked (#JudithButler , 1990, p.338)."
‘To choose to appear as “female” when one is male is always constructed… as a loss, as a choice worthy only of ridicule’ (#bellHooks, 1992, p.145).

"Since the defeat of ISIS, #Raqqa has been on a path of rebuilding and revitalisation as part of the defacto autonomous northeastern Syrian region known as #Rojava. The development of a democratic, egalitarian and multi-ethnic society, with an emphasis on women’s empowerment and ecological sustainability, is at the core of the self government."
