I think queers also have a very honest and explicict sexual code, There is an ettiqutte that is understood. We talk about sex wit halot more honesty and clarity.

Exactly. (With the caveats that this is not true of all queers, sadly, and that the culture as a whole can also be snobby and exclusionary and shallow). Homophobia is partly fuelled by envy, via a clutcha myths abt promiscuity (where it happens and what it's like), and a LESS myth-bound intuition abt the good stuff anthony's citing.

Lad-ladette culture = torn between mimicry (admiration) and homophobia (envy).

Her "laddism" was not the aspect of her I had in mind, so much as her assumption of total male irredeemability. But maybe they are not so unconnected anyway?

Perhaps not. I know that she went through a phase of extreme sexual libertinism - going so far as defending incest and bestiality (in Woman Hating). She must have had a bad experience or two during that time. Maybe she contracted rabies or something.

Oh, I should also add that many people have commented on Dworkin's competitiveness with men and her x-tra large ego, all the while being frequently dismissive and patronizing of women.

Is there not ONE straight male here who will admit to even the teensy- weensiest bit of enjoying privilege and using whatever means to hold on to it? Come on, let's have a bit of candor for once! And if 'violence and anti-intellectualism' are bad things to be shunned, then how do some of you explain your interest in pop music?

dave q, Friday, 17 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Enjoying privilege? *scratches head* Uh, no, not really. Don't want it anyway!
