This is a feminist blog, but blog entries are typically written from a radfem standpoint: radical feminists challenge, undermine, resist, dismantle, and generally fuck with our sexist society, wherein the male/masculine is privileged and the female/feminine is subordinated.
That said, and notwithstanding the title of this blog, I have to say that I find it unfortunate that the described perspective is called “radical feminism”. “Feminism” and “feminist” sound pro-female, even pro-feminine. I am no more pro-female, let alone pro-feminine, than I am anti-male.
What I am is anti-gender. More specifically, I object to:
(1) gender conceived as a dichotomy, masculine on one side and feminine on the other side
(2) gender aligned with sex: male=masculine and female=feminine
I’m also anti-sexism:
(3) sex as the basis of a hierarchy
