Pornography: Men Possessing Women, by: Andrea ... - Feminish

women evil; he exterminates nine million women as witchesbecause he has named women evil. He does not merely namewomen weak; he mutilates the female body, binds it up so that itcannot move freely, uses it as toy or ornament, keeps it caged andstunted because he has named women weak. He says that thefemale wants to be raped; he rapes. She resists rape; he must beather, threaten her with death, forcibly carry her off, attack her in thenight, use knife or fist; and still he says she wants it, they all do.She says no; he claims it means yes. He names her ignorant, thenforbids her education. He does not allow her to use her mind orbody rigorously, then names her intuitive and emotional. Hedefines femininity and when she does not conform he names herdeviant, sick, beats her up, slices off her clitoris (repository ofpathological masculinity), tears out her womb (source of herpersonality), lobotomizes or narcotizes her (perverse recognitionthat she can think, though thinking in a woman is named deviant).He names antagonism and violence, mixed in varying degrees,“sex”; he beats her and names it variously “proof of love” (if she iswife) or “eroticism” (if she is mistress). If she wants him sexually henames her slut; if she does not want him he rapes her and says shedoes; if she would rather study or paint he names her repressed andbrags he can cure her pathological interests with the apocryphal“good fuck. ” He names her housewife, fit only for the house, keepsher poor and utterly dependent, only to buy her with his moneyshould she leave the house and then he calls her whore. He namesher whatever suits him. He does what he wants and calls it what helikes. He actively maintains the power of naming through force andhe justifies force through the power of naming. The world is hisbecause he has named everything in it, including her. She uses thislanguage against herself because it cannot be used any other way.The fourth tenet of male supremacy is that men, because they areintellectually and creatively existent, name things authentically.Whatever contradicts or subverts male naming is defamed out ofexistence; the power of naming itself, in the male system, is a formof force.
