Hey, Stop Raping Fat Chicks!
Peter Paul Rubens, Rape of the Daughters of Leucippus (1618) This public service announcement should not be necessary, but unfortunately there seems to be some confusion on the subject: Rape culture is prevalent, insidious, and normalized in our culture. . .

The MacKinnonite View: Power, Gender, Sexuality and Social Oppression
From time to time, it seems necessary to remind readers that there is no such thing as “moderate feminism.” Feminism is inherently radical — indeed, revolutionary in its aims — and if you are not a radical, you are not a feminist.
