Y aquí va una web fantástica: Feminist first. Con nuestra adorada Sheila Jeffreys como hada madrina y Catherine Mackinnon en primera línea de fuego.
Es un excelente ejemplo del feminismo radical antipornografía, el que tanto nos odia, y como muestra, why the notion of porn for women is false.

Pornography is a political act – not an idea, not speech. The graphic sexually explicit subordination of men, as a class, could only exist in a society where men are the powerless. This is not the society we live in nor is it a society we want to live in. In short, the ‘tit for tat’ notion of pornography for women is not realisable, nor desirable, in today’s culture.

Y tiene una excelente sección de links, Object, por ejemplo, desafía la objetificación de la mujer en los media, en la industria del sexo y el porno. Cómo puedo estar tan de acuerdo con ella en tantas cosas y sin embargo mantener opiniones enfrentadas en tantas otras?

some of you are probably watching the TV and think “what the fuck i’m going to do? is it a place for a queeruption or is it a real war zone?!”

Esta es la información que nos llega de los organizadores de queeruption 9 en Tel Aviv. No podría ser peor momento para acercarse a Israel. O tal vez sí podría ser peor.

El próximo Queeruption tendrá lugar en Tel Aviv del 3 al 13 de agosto.
Y allí estaremos.

You are invited to the 9th Queeruption in Tel-Aviv, August 3rd-13th 2006!

In the last Queeruption* in Barcelona there was a proposal by present Israeli queers to hold the next Queeruption in Tel-Aviv, which was welcomed by activists from the Middle East, Europe and North America. This initiative was rooted in our belief that as queers we view ourselves as part of the global struggle for freedom, justice and self determination.Thousands of LGBT people are expected to attend the World Pride event in Jerusalem in August 2006. This event is also used as a chance for the Israeli office of foreign affairs to hide the government’s war crimes behind a rainbow flag. The slogan of the World Pride Parade is “Love Without Borders”. We believe that love without borders should reject occupation, apartheid, social injustice, ecological destruction and walls. There has been a global call to boycott the World Pride in Jerusalem by various Palestine solidarity groups as well. We feel that it is important to push our solidarity further by coming to Israel and Palestine for a celebration of our diversity, empowerment and resistance.It is the first time that Queeruption takes place outside the borders of rich western states. This Queeruption will also extend beyond the centralized location in Tel-Aviv to the West Bank and spice up the World Pride parade in Jerusalem. There are also possibilities for people interested in staying longer to join solidarity work in the area which we will provide links to. A group will be in Tel-Aviv sometime before the event in order to help set things up. Given the social and cultural situation there are a lot of issues to take into account and discuss during the preparation process and through the event. We need your help, whether you are coming or not, with raising funds and advertising the event. We also need your knowledge, skills and ideas, and your help on a ground preparation.
