Like this? Share it: I am not making this up. I like much of the genre generally known as hard rock. I put up with 99.9% male vocalists, and often-problematical lyrics and topics, because I like hard/alternative rock (among other things) and I am too lazy and cheap frugal to bother amassing my own music collection and toting around a [...] 26 January 2010 at 12:36 am | Category: Gender, Kyriarchy | Tags: isms, misogyny | 12 comments

Like this? Share it: Y’all know that I blame the kyriarchy — to talk only of patriarchy is to whitewash (ha ha) the myriad ways that people, including women, are variously oppressed and privileged. It pretends that all women experience oppression in the same ways, and focuses on sexism as the prime or only marginalization of women (because the [...] 22 January 2010 at 2:55 am | Category: Gender, Kyriarchy, Privilege | Tags: ableism, cis privilege, double binds, intersectionalism, isms, racism, societal pressures, white privilege | 8 comments
