What is worse: marriage or prostitution?

Radical feminism and the 2nd wave feminism consider prostitution and pornography (prostitution registered on film, tape or paper) crimes against women. In patriarchy , female sexuality is recommended as submissive, and women have to be submissive all the time, and their sexuality is simply a romantic reflection of their forced submission. Andrea Dworkin and other 2nd wave feminists tried to ban pornography, outlining its effects on male sexual behavior. Now radical feminists (as few as they are today) oppose legalizing prostitution, against the strong lobby of pimps and other males in the sex industry. But some prostituted women remonstrate to radical feminists that they forget about marriage and heterosexual relationships, which means the same, i.e. selling yourself. Prostitution is not worse than marriage and dating, the only difference is the social stigma, they say.. It's true, nobody can condemn prostitution without condemning the legal prostitution, supported by sta

Patriarchy through the curious, sincere, and intelligent eyes of a former Muslim woman

Contrary to the western legends, Mohammed, the prophet, was a genius, not a mentally disabled man, I think. The western propaganda, many people believe in, says he was illiterate, retarded, with speech problems. He may have been illiterate, with speech disabilities, but certainly, a very intelligent person of his time. I don't mean he was a good, empathetic or moral person. Not at all. But I can't stop admiring his vision about society, power, the human nature, in fact about long term political power. He united the Arab tribes, that were in a perpetual war one with each other. He succeeded to bring peace among these people, as he promised. Peace was his gift for his kind, Islam means peace. And his project still functions, he still rules over a fifth of the world population. He's the prophetical king who reigned over 1000 years. not Jesus. In fact, the power of Jesus started to fade centuries ago. But Mohammed is still very influential. Why? Because he brought

A white woman as a savior of all women

We are living    pretty weird   times .  We  allegedly  are crossing the    feminism   of the   third wave , but apparently   it's   a wave that   does nothing, but  washing  the   other ones.   Everything seems   to   fall apart, to   be deconstructed   until   being demolished  or   distorted,   in   the best case .  On the other hand  some  leftists and  the  cultural   relativism   dilute   any   clear message.   Sometimes things   really are   black and white , no   shades   of gray.   Sometimes you have to   make   precise   spectral analyses .  So  in  feminism    sometimes things are clear .  And painful .  Patriarchy   exists,   destroy   lives,   minds ,  in   every moment ,  even now .  Women are   taught to   be   slaves ,to adapt   as slaves ,  with more or   less " rights".  Any   approach which doesn't go   to the root   of things , the existence of   patriarchy , it's just  a   cosmetic   measure .  It's like   you plug   a hole   in

Why human rights are not enough? Why do we need feminism

There are people, especially males, who claim the concept of human rights is enough in order to protect women's rights. If we apply these rights, women will be OK. Beating, rapping discriminating at the work place, street harassment  is against human rights. Yes, it's true. But we should take into account that all the public institutions are creating for men by men, ignoring women's need for millennia. Moreover, during the last two or three centuries, the male power was getting stronger, and the so-called democratic revolutions, partly initiated and largely supported by women, deprived them of political power even more than before. At the core of this system is the patriarchal family. If you ever participated at a wedding or civil marriage, you saw why feminism is still needed. Family, marriage is the base of society. every institution is built around family: church, school, state. And family means husband and wife (this is the order people are asked about thei

Are you interested in a new radical feminist book with daring analyses?

I am just wondering....I created this blog in order to advertise for my radical feminist novel I started to write a few years ago. Unfortunately, I am very busy, I didn't write too much, although the structure of this novel, all the important ideas, even some chapters are already written. My blog is not very successful, most likely because it's written in Romanian, and there are few radical feminists eager to read it. I am wondering if a radical feminist book based on my the posts of my blog would be interesting for radical feminists worldwide. Just wondering, because the novel is still a viable project. I need a vacation for it. But a radical feminist book, based on my analyses is simpleyto edit. But before it, I just want to know if it is worth doing, if feminists really wants to read such thing. I think these posts are very daring, very radical. I need your opinion, please!
