Does it count if I posted it a few times?

Woman Hating
Right Wing Women
Pornography and Civil Rights

By reading more Dworkin.

My sister is 8, but when she gets older I'll make hella sure she reads a couple books by Andrea Dworkin and other notable feminists.

Maybe when she's 14-16 she can start with light stuff like from that one African woman whose book is being distributed in Sweden.

I never really read books my whole life.

Then I was trying to get into feminism and decided to force myself to read one of the classics: Woman Hating. (http://radfem.org/dworkin))

Since then I've read through about 7 books by Andrea Dworkin and am yet not bored.

I'm afraid of moving to other feminist authors because I fear I'll be bored and then feel guilty.

Start with Woman Hating.

Your life will never be the same.

>read
Any of Dworkin's books.

>expected
Inane man-hating and equating all sex with OMG RAPE.

>got
Extremely insightful culture analysis and critique, a dry and cynical humor I'm in love with, and an incredible amalgam of idealism and pragmatism, by an overall utterly brilliant woman who had thoroughly horrible, traumatizing experiences in life, which only helped fuel her systematized rage.

So, have you read the works of one of the most impressive authors of human history yet?

Get on my level, nerds.

Anyone Dworkin & MacKinnon here?

Few of the greatest authors in the history of humankind if you ask me. No shit.

"Pornography and Civil Rights" blew me away, along with several of Dworkin's books and MacKinnon's speeches.

I wish something like the Civil Rights Ordinance had been passed.
