My timeline is divided over what to make of this speech. Some cheer: Wow, a nice feminist who does not complaining about the men, but she wants to get into the boat. The others are annoyed: Feminism is finally not there to be found by men great as to whose judgment it is here but for once, just do not.
In my opinion, it's not about feminism Gender Equality (like Emma Watson asserts in her speech), but female freedom, ie to the subjectivity of women just without the scale of a male norm. The emancipation, ie the equality of women with men was how Luisa Muraro once put it, entirely predictable in a (male) culture, which has chosen the equality of people for over 200 years to its mission statement. That the women were so long excluded from this equality does not alter the fact that the equality of women was a logical and inevitable consequence durban july fashion of the male idea of equality. durban july fashion It was only a matter of time before they had to come of it.
The freedom of women, durban july fashion the female subjectivity, however, is not provided for in this symbolic order. It is actually something unforeseen, which only came to light with the women's movement. And this freedom stands just NOT by the equality of women with men, but rather the contrary, the fact that women follow their own desires, beliefs and ideas and take them seriously, regardless of whether they are of the view of the world and the ideas men are compatible or not. If they are, the better you can work together. If they are not, there is a set of political conflicts unsubscribe.
On the other hand, alliances with men still useful and necessary. For indeed, are so many men with the patriarchal symbolic order dissatisfied because they the good life of all people is not beneficial in many ways. By that I mean not only that men also suffer from gender stereotypes, something "have feminism". That's true, but it is only a small part of the truth, because in many other ways they profit indeed from the stereotypes, that is, feminism is contrary to their interests.
But politics is still searching for a good coexistence of all people and not just lobbying for their own interests. People with a political consciousness, with love for the world and therefore with a sense of justice, give not content to follow in this world only their own benefits. But you are looking for meaning in all of this, which extends beyond their own little nose.
And in this sense, men can benefit from feminist analysis, durban july fashion because these aspects and open up perspectives and make available the by itself may not have made. I do not know just masse, but quite a number of men who discuss for this reason durban july fashion happy with feminists who read feminist texts for the views and analyzes of women interested durban july fashion in who are really interested in an exchange.
And these men are quite important allies of the women's durban july fashion movement, because - simply because of their masculinity - have options durban july fashion that I have not because I'm a woman. This can be something as mundane durban july fashion as the fact that other men rather listen durban july fashion to them than me. This is obviously unfair, but complain that changes nothing in the ratios tend to be, as they are. As long as this feminist thinking men do not require cookies for her commitment from me, I am delighted when they find somewhere hearing, where it can not.
But it is not only that. There are also situations in which men listen to me though, but I can not make myself understood them. For example, because I was in they actually can not put myself because I do not understand where your problem is. And I'm not anti-feminists who do not want me for ideological reasons understand but I mean those in which I see a real interest, but I can not give them just what I want to say it is lacking a common level of understanding.
In such cases, I'll be glad when men take this mediation work, because I have often observed that they'll find words and examples and arguments that act, and simply would not have occurred durban july fashion to me. To have such "Allies" durban july fashion is a good thing.
Only once as comprehension question. If the equality in the "male" philosophy is applied slowly implemented because things just not always go fast, what exactly is the problem of "female subjectivity" in the end * inclusive * So no more "male & #
